Chapter 107: Su Li's Heart Knot
However, Su Li has not always liked to drill the horns. After thinking about it for a few days and couldn't come up with a reason, I stopped thinking about it and simply went with the flow. It's just that she still won't tell Su Yu that she is Li Yue, but if he finds out by himself, she won't choose to escape anymore.
As for how to face it at that time, I will think about it then, and it is not within the scope of Su Li's question at this moment.
After this palace banquet, she still has a lot of things to do, and in this life, she has vowed not to let the ending of her previous life happen again, so she has naturally decided to change. Except for the fact that emotional things are uncontrollable, other things are not like this. Even if the imperial city is calm now, she still has to do something to prevent it and take precautions.
The banquet in the palace has begun, and Su Li is the protagonist of this banquet, so he is naturally the last to appear.
On the palace banquet, the sound of silk and bamboo continued, after the opening dance.
With the sound of "the princess has arrived", Su Li appeared under the watchful eye of everyone, dressed in a gorgeous splendid palace costume, carrying the elegance of a lifetime.
At the palace banquet, everyone was silent for a while, and they were all watching with bated breath at the only princess in Luoyang City, her identity was destined to make her arrival unusual.
Su Li's appearance amazed everyone's eyes, although this little princess has not yet reached the end of her life, her face is also slightly immature. But everyone can imagine what kind of alluring appearance she should look like when she really grows up.
What surprised everyone the most was that the princess was sent to Tianlang Temple to recuperate when she was eight years old, but when she came out, she was born step by step, with an elegant posture and an elegant temperament. And in the face of such a big scene, he was not timid at all, which is really surprising!
This also includes Queen Shen Wan, you must know that Li Er has never been very willing to learn the rules until she was eight years old, and she only learned something when she was eight years old. Unexpectedly, in the years of Tianlang Temple, Li Er did not leave the rules behind, but was so good that she was unexpected. Even when I first saw such a big scene, I didn't show any timidity.
Queen Shen Wan couldn't help but be very proud, it seems that Li Er has really grown up and is a lot more sensible.
Su Yu looked at Su Li who had just appeared, and he didn't know what it was like in his heart.
That day, after he and the crown prince Su Zhe dealt with the matter together, Su Zhe specially offered to talk to him about Li Er. The two of them went to Tianxiang Ju together, and Su Zhe told Su Yu about Su Li's conversation with him the day before.
He actually knows everything, knows Li'er's heart knot, and knows Li'er's concerns. It's just that she is also lost in her wariness of herself, she is Su Lishi's wariness of herself.
Su Zhe asked him, "Why did Li Er say that you are someone she can't like? Did you do something to make her misunderstand?"
At that time, Su Yu just smiled helplessly, and then there was silence. After a long time, he said, "She doesn't want to believe me after all." ”
Su Zhe looked puzzled and said, "Li Er doesn't believe you, then what did you do to make her so entangled?"
Su Yu sighed, raised his head and drank a glass of wine, and suddenly said seriously: "Because my father will rebel!"
Su Zhe looked at him in shock, "What did you say?"
"Yes, my father! When I was a child, he was already secretly recruiting troops to train the army, and he did these things in such a way that I only learned about them by accidentally falling into the base where he was training. When he found out about my existence, he told me directly and came up with a plan. ”
"What's the plan?"
Su Yu said: "Originally, he didn't plan to send me to the capital as a proton, he chose the second Su He at the beginning. But after I stumbled upon his secret, he changed his mind. He said that he had a force left in the capital, lurking in the city of Luoyang. He asked me to run well in the capital, and helped him grow that power. When the time is ripe, he will find an opportunity to attack the imperial city and join forces with him to take the Southern Tang Dynasty. ”
"Presumptuous, how can I take the country of the Southern Tang Dynasty if he says he can take it. Su Zhe took the case, and the image of a humble gentleman in the past was no longer there, but was replaced by an imperial demeanor.
Su Yu looked at Su Zhe in front of him and suddenly smiled.
"What, do you think what Prince Ben said is wrong?"
Su Yu said: "No, I just suddenly feel that my cognition is wrong?"
"What do you mean?" Su Zhe frowned.
Su Yu poured him a glass of wine and handed it to him, "Come, take a sip of wine first and then speak slowly." ”
Su Zhe seemed to know that he had overreacted just now, so he also sat down and took the wine glass handed over by Su Yu.
Su Yu said: "I always thought that you were only suitable to be a prosperous monarch, but not a troubled overlord. But when you said that just now, I suddenly felt that even in troubled times, you will definitely be able to fight and stabilize the world immediately. ”
"Really?"
Su Yu smiled and didn't answer his question, but said, "It seems that the future development of Nantang should be very good." ”
Su Zhe also smiled when he heard this, and said, "I borrowed your auspicious words." ”
He took a sip of wine and said, "Then what do you think of this?" He knew that since Su Yu would inform him of this matter, it not only showed that he trusted him, but also showed that he must have chosen a position. Ask again, and I can't think of hearing the reasons for his choice.
Su Yu smiled and said, "I naturally chose to surrender to the Holy Lord today, and I will surrender to you in the future." ”
Su Zhe said: "If the Marquis of Dingbei becomes the emperor, then you will naturally be the crown prince and the future prince as a meritorious hero in the future, aren't you interested in that position?"
Su Yu remembered all the things he had lost after becoming the emperor in his previous life, and his heart ached. He sighed and said, "I know what I really want, that position may be supreme in the eyes of everyone, but in my opinion, it can't match a smile from Li'er." ”
Su Zhe was very satisfied with this answer, he knew that Su Yu had the ability to be the emperor, but if he really wanted to be it, he would not tell these things, let alone expose his power in front of him. He had also doubted whether Su Yu had the heart to rebel against his forces in such a way, and he was somewhat wary of him at first.
But later, his power only stopped at the power that a son should have, and did not exceed this limit, and most of the forces he operated were to find out more news for himself.
What's more, Su Yu didn't look at the affairs of the DPRK and China, and for him, Li'er's affairs were much more important than these. It is precisely because of this that he is willing to entrust Li Er to him. It is precisely because of this that he is no longer afraid of him, but trusts Su Yu very much.
Su Zhe smiled and said, "It's a good choice to entrust Li Er to you, and I can rest assured." ”
Su Yu also smiled and toasted with him.
After Su Zhe drank the wine, he asked, "Does Li Er know about the rebellion of the Marquis of Dingbei?"
Su Yu nodded, "Yes, she knows." ”
"How would she know about this?"
Su Yu shook her head and said, "I don't know how she knew, it's just the second level of Xuanji Pavilion's election for pavilion master, overcoming her demons, and her dream words tell all this." So I think it's probably because of this that Li Er thinks I'm someone she can't like. ”
Su Zhe suddenly realized that although Li Er was still young, it was rare to be able to think of these at this time. It seems that Li Er is already a princess of a country with responsibilities. It's no longer the wayward little girl she used to be.
Su Zhe smiled and said, "It seems that when do you have to find a chance to explain to Li Er." ”
Su Yu smiled on his face, but he was smiling bitterly in his heart. If only it were that simple. Li Er experienced a real rebellion, and he was the one who really rebelled and became the emperor, although he was helpless, but he did cause harm to Li Er, which he could not refute.
But because of this, Li Er's heart is already closed, and it will not be easily opened to him again.
Su Zhe asked again: "Then what are you going to do with your father's forces left in Luoyang?"
Su Yu smiled and said: "Naturally, those who should have rebelled have already rebelled, and those who can't rebel have been eliminated by me." ”
Su Zhe was slightly stunned, and admired Su Yu's methods again, but still said, "When did you eradicate it?"
Su Yu said: "I can't remember exactly when, but what I roughly remember is that it took me two years to eradicate these forces." ”
Su Zhe said: "It took you two years, so it can be seen that this power is a bit big." ”
Su Yu said: "There are about 30,000 people. ”
Su Zhe was shocked: "What? There are 30,000 people? Dingbei Hou's ambition is really not small, it seems that he has been in business for a long time, and he is not eager for quick success, and he knows how to cultivate obscurity." Such a person is the most terrifying, and the most feared thing is that he will either not move, or he will be hit with one blow if he moves. ”
"How many people have you rebelled against?"
"Twenty-five thousand, and the other five thousand were dealt with by me because my father's former subordinates refused to be rebelled. The other 25,000 people, mostly people around Luoyang, did not have the intention of rebellion, but just to eat for a living, and did not know my father's plan. ”
Su Zhe felt that if it weren't for Su Yu's lack of rebellion, with Dingbeihou's far-reaching scheming and Su Yu's strategy, the Southern Tang Dynasty would be really a little dangerous. I can't help but feel lucky, but at the same time, my fear of the vassal states has become deeper and deeper.
The seven vassal states are all remote, and the emperor is far away, so it is easy to develop and expand their own power, even if there are a few protons in the capital, there is no complete guarantee that they will abandon their sons. What to do with the vassal states was a question he had to consider.
Now that the sub-feudal system practiced in the Southern Tang Dynasty is no longer applicable to the peaceful and prosperous era, it may be time to abolish this system.
Su Zhe said: "In this way, I can rest assured for the time being." ”
