"Didn't His Royal Highness King Qi mean to send me a letter and let me mention this matter to the emperor?" Li Jing looked at the red-whisked girl with a puzzled expression and asked.

"You should know how embarrassing His Royal Highness King Qi's identity is, although the emperor is more important than him. But the Guan Long clan, led by the eldest grandson Wuji, regarded him as a thorn in the flesh. ”

"If you mention this matter now, you will naturally be considered by the Guan Long clan to have thrown themselves into Li Ke. Even if the emperor doesn't have any special ideas, I'm afraid that the eldest grandson Wuji and others won't want to see it. ”

"What's more, now that the emperor is trying his best to balance the relationship between the princes, he definitely doesn't want to see any prince dominate." The red-whisked girl opened her mouth and said to Li Jing.

Hearing the Red Whisk Girl say this, Li Jing woke up like a dream. Now the crown prince Li Chengqian is trying his best to win over the important ministers of the court. And Li Tai, the king of Yue, is also expanding his power.

Although the eldest grandson Wuji did not make a choice, who to support between the two. But Li Jing naturally understands that the eldest grandson Wuji is not supporting a certain person, but the son of the eldest grandson empress.

In other words, no matter how much trouble they make up, the eldest grandson Wuji will not get involved. But if there are other princes who want to take advantage of the situation, they will definitely be suppressed by the eldest grandson Wuji.

And now the main target of the eldest grandson Wuji is Li Ke, the king of Qi, who owns the land of seven states. Now Wei Zheng and others have made their position clear and chose to support Li Ke, the king of Qi.

Even Cheng Biting Jin has performed in this regard, which has made the eldest grandson Wuji very unhappy. If Li Jing stood up to support Li Ke at this time, then Changsun Wuji and the others would naturally not sit still.

At that time, the eldest grandson Wuji and others will definitely oppose it, and Li Jing will marry his daughter to Li Ke. Even an illegitimate daughter would never be allowed.

It is even possible to ask Li Shimin for a decree to give Li Jing's first daughter a marriage. And the object of marriage is very likely to be Li Chengqian or Li Tai.

If this really happens, then what Li Jing did will really help. When the time comes, Ailian's won't hate him to death.

After figuring out the key, Li Jing spoke: "What does the lady think this matter should do, we can't ignore Ailian's happiness, right?" ”

"Who do you think is the most outstanding among the emperor's princes today? Who is more likely to inherit the Tang Dynasty in the future? Li Jing, who did not answer the rhetorical question, said.

"Now, although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is trying his best to express himself, the important ministers of the court are not optimistic about his future. Because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is extremely narrow-minded, he is by no means the best candidate for the throne. ”

"But Li Tai, the king of Yue, seems to be very contrived, and every thing he does is to please the emperor. If such a person eventually becomes the emperor, it may not be a good thing for the people of the world. ”

Although Li Ke, the king of Qi, has the support of Wei Zheng and others, his identity is very embarrassing. And it is rumored that in Qizhou City, in addition to hunting and worshipping Buddha, he rarely asked about political affairs. ”

"And judging from the drought in Qizhou last time, His Royal Highness the King of Qi handled things too recklessly. Such a person can be a general, but I am afraid that it will not be enough for the emperor. ”

"Li You, the king of Yan, also has the heart to win the heir, but he has no support from the important ministers in the court. I'm afraid that in the end, it will be just a moth to the fire. ”

"The other princes are still young, and they don't see what kind of people they will be in the future. So now the most suitable person to inherit the throne has really not been found. ”

"Fortunately, the emperor is in good health, and there is still time for those young princes to grow up. Perhaps in the future, there will be an heir to the throne among these young princes, and the chances of Li Zhi, the king of Jin, may be the greatest. Li Jing opened his mouth and said to the Red Whisk Girl.

These words of the Red Whisk Girl sounded nothing, and if Li Ke heard it, she would definitely be surprised. admires Li Jing's unique vision.

If it weren't for Li Ke's accidental resurrection of the corpse, history would not have changed in the slightest. The natural successor to the throne in the future is Li Zhi, the king of Jin.

However, the Red Whisker Girl didn't think so, waved her hand and said, "Do you think that a person who only knows how to hunt and worship Buddha and doesn't ask about political affairs can get the support of Wei Zheng and others?" ”

"That Cheng bites Jin usually has a big grin, but he is a rough and fine person. How can you praise a gentleman? ”

"Do you think that a person who can deliver letters for you in this way can be done by a reckless person?"

"Are you saying that everything His Royal Highness King Qi has done is for others to see. If that's really the case, then His Royal Highness King Qi is really extraordinary. Li Jing said to the red whisk girl in surprise.

"This is also the reason why the eldest grandson Wuji tried his best to suppress His Royal Highness King Qi. Because he also didn't believe that Li Ke was a gentleman. On the contrary, he will definitely be his nephew's biggest rival. The Red Whisk Girl nodded and said.

"If it is true as Madame says, then I really don't have to do anything. Presumably, His Royal Highness King Qi must have arranged everything, and when the time comes, it will definitely catch the eldest grandson Wuji and the others off guard. Li Jing said to the red whisk girl with a smile.

"You're right, you just need to push the boat down the river. It's just that I think before Ailian's marriage to His Royal Highness King Qi, it was better for the master to disarm and return to the field. The red-haired girl said to Li Jing.

"I'm now past the age of sixties, and I'm tired of fighting on the battlefield all my life. It's time to take a break. Li Jing said to the red whisk girl with a smile.

Li Jing, the historical Duke of Weiguo, resigned as prime minister in 634 AD in the eighth year of Zhenguan. In other words, even if there is no such thing as Li Ke, Li Jing is already ready to retreat bravely.

However, now that Li Jing has resigned, I am afraid it is different from history. Not only did it advance by a full year, but the motivation was also different from what it was historically.

Because Shan Ailian married Li Ke as Li Jing's illegitimate daughter. That also means that Li Ke has become Li Jing's son-in-law.

When the time comes, Li Jing, who holds a lot of power, will naturally support Li Ke. This will definitely make the eldest grandson Wuji and others vigorously oppose this matter.

If Li Jing disarmed and returned to the field to hand over the power in his hands, it would naturally make the eldest grandson Wuji and others feel at ease. At the same time, this can be regarded as a kind of protection for yourself.

……

"The emperor is in the court, if there is something to do, he will play early, and he will retreat from the court without anything." Wang De stood beside Li Shimin and shouted.

Hundreds of officials in the court saluted Li Shimin one after another, and then began to go out to report the world to Li Shimin. After dealing with all government affairs, Li Jing stood up.

And said to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, now the minister has passed the age of sixties. During this time, I feel that my body is not as good as before. ”

"The dark wounds left on the battlefield back then are now also faintly painful. Therefore, the minister felt that he could no longer serve the emperor, and asked the emperor to allow the minister to return to his hometown. ”

Li Shimin never imagined that Li Jing was ready to resign. And the important ministers in the court didn't expect it, after all, Li Jing is now a very human minister.
