Chapter 403: Li Yuan wants to leave the palace
It was not early, Li Xiu and Pei Lin said goodbye to Li Yuan and left, but when they left, Li Yuan personally sent them out of the main hall, and then stood in front of the palace gate to watch them leave, until Li Xiu was about to leave the range of the Ganlu Palace, turned his head and found that Li Yuan was still standing outside the palace gate, which also made Li Xiu sigh helplessly, and felt that Li Yuan was actually very pitiful for the first time.

"My Majesty, Your Majesty said that he doesn't want to live in the palace anymore, but I'm afraid it will be difficult for the prince to agree to this, what can you do about it?" Pei Lin suddenly frowned at this time and asked, before Li Yuan heard that Pei Lin was going to resign, he made a request, that is, he hoped that Pei Lin could help him one last time, because he didn't want to live in the palace anymore.
For Li Yuan's request, Li Xiu and Pei Lin can understand it, as an emperor, but now he is under house arrest, and he does not have the slightest power in his hands, but he lives in the palace, and every day he dresses, uses, and sees, reminding him all the time that he is an imprisoned emperor, which is also a huge torture for him.
"It's difficult, Pei Xiang, you shouldn't have promised Your Majesty just now!" Li Xiu sighed at this time and said, even Pei Lin needed to ask Li Shimin again and again if he wanted to see Li Yuan, and even took out his resignation as an exchange condition, so he finally made Li Shimin nod, and now Li Yuan said that he didn't want to live in the palace, this request was simply too difficult to do.
"Naturally, I also know that this matter is difficult to climb to the sky, but Your Majesty's current situation, how can you make me bear to refuse?" Pei Lin sighed at this time and said, he and Li Yuan are not only monarchs and ministers, but also confidants, even if Li Yuan has become a generation of emperors, but they also treat him as confidants, as the so-called "The king treats me as a countryman, and I should repay him as a countryman", which is also the main reason why Pei Yuan can't refuse Li Yuan.
"Pei Xiang Gaoyi, but you also have to know that if Your Majesty wants to move out of the palace, the most important thing is to make the prince think that His Majesty no longer has any threat to him, and if you want the prince to feel like this, the first step is to let the prince ascend the throne, and Your Majesty will become the emperor, which is estimated to wait a few months, and even if the prince ascends the throne, he will not let down his guard against His Majesty in a short time, so this matter is too difficult!" Li Xiu spread his hands at this time, anyway, with his understanding of Li Shimin, it was impossible for Pei Lin to complete this matter in a short period of time.
"Your Majesty just said that he didn't want to live in the palace anymore, and he didn't say that he would move out immediately, in fact, he also knew that this matter was difficult, so he didn't give me a time limit, but I was about to resign, and I am afraid it will be difficult to do this in the future."
When Pei Lin said this, his eyes kept looking at Li Xiu, and as a result, Li Xiu immediately said with a weak heart: "Pei Xiang, don't look at me, you also said before, I am not a real official, so I can't do anything about this matter!" ”
"Haha~, don't be humble, don't be humble, although you are not an official, but in the prince's heart, you are much stronger than an official, and Your Majesty is still your father-in-law, can you bear to let your father-in-law suffer?" Pei Lin said with a smile again.
"Pei Xiang, don't be embarrassed for me, I really can't do this." Li Xiu said helplessly at this time. In fact, although he felt that Li Yuan was a little pitiful, he didn't think that Li Yuan deserved sympathy, because the reason why Li Shimin came to the step of killing his brother and imprisoning his father was also inseparable from Li Yuan's deliberate connivance.
"Li Xiu, I, Pei Lian, have never begged anyone in my life, but I really can't think of any better way to do this matter for Your Majesty, and now except for you, I'm afraid there is no one who can help Your Majesty!" When Pei Lin said the end, he suddenly stopped and saluted Li Xiu, which also startled Li Xiu.
"Pei Xiang, you ......" Li Xiu hurriedly helped Pei Lin up, the expression on his face became even more helpless, and after a while, he spoke again, "I can help Pei Xiang in this matter, but it will definitely not have any effect in a short period of time, and it may even be possible in a year or two!" ”
"Oh? Does the colt already have a plan? Pei Lin heard that Li Xiu had even said the deadline, and his eyes lit up at the moment, he didn't have the slightest clue about this matter now.
"Almost, if you want the prince to agree to His Majesty to move out of the palace, the first step is naturally to let the prince ascend the throne, I have already said just now, and after the prince ascends the throne, generally speaking, it will definitely take a considerable period of time to establish the prestige of the emperor, this process is very long, and it can not be completed overnight, but there is no way to shorten the process, such as ...... War! Li Xiu said deliberately when he said the end.
"War?" Pei Lin was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then reacted and said, "I understand, you said Turkic!" ”
"Yes, last time the Turks took advantage of the emptiness of our Tang Dynasty troops to suddenly go south, the prince did his best to make the Turks retreat, with his temper, there must be a breath of breath in his heart, now the Tang Dynasty is becoming more and more stable, but the Turks have already had the worry of civil strife, as long as the Turks are in chaos, I am afraid that the prince will immediately raise troops, if he can destroy the Turks in one fell swoop, then no one will be able to shake the prince's throne, and then His Majesty's threat to the prince will naturally be gone." Li Xiu slowly spoke out his thoughts at this time.
After listening to Li Xiu's words, Pei Lin also showed a clear expression, but soon frowned and said: "This method is indeed feasible, the only thing that cannot be determined is when the Turks will have civil strife, and our Tang Dynasty has just settled down, and the treasury is quite empty, I am afraid it will be difficult to use troops against the Turks on a large scale for a while!" ”
"Yes, I'm also most worried about this, so I said that it may take a year or two to have a chance, and this is the most optimistic estimate, if something unpredictable happens, I'm afraid this time will be longer." Li Xiu spread his hands and said helplessly at this time, he had already said that this matter was difficult to climb to the sky, and it was not something that could be solved in a short time.
"This ......" Pei Lin didn't know what to say for a while when he heard this, and finally could only let out a long sigh, it seems that the last thing that Li Yuan, an old friend, gave him, I'm afraid he won't be able to do it in a short time anyway.
At that moment, Li Xiu and Pei Lin came to the Liangyi Hall again, and Li Shimin really agreed to Pei Lian's request to resign, but it still needs to be officially announced at the court meeting tomorrow, for which Pei Lin is also grateful again, and then left the palace with Li Xiu.
However, just a few days later, Li Xiu suddenly received a message from the palace, when he heard the news, Li Xiu was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly came to his senses, and let out a long breath and said: "What an old fox!" (To be continued.) )
