Chapter 1288: Li Zhi's Advice

"A person can even kill his son ruthlessly, let alone a brother?" When Li Shimin left, he kept repeating what Li Xiu said to him, and his face also had a look of lost soul.

Li Xiu looked at Li Shimin's carriage, but couldn't help sighing, his words pierced Li Tai's lies, and also punctured the beautiful illusions in Li Shimin's heart, but no matter how beautiful the fantasy is, it is also false, especially Li Shimin, as the emperor, can not be confused by the illusion, and even if Li Xiu does not pierce it, it will be punctured by others in the future, so it is better to let him wake up early.

The next morning, Li Xiu had just gotten up, and the eldest grandson Wuji came to visit again, and as soon as he saw Li Xiu, he immediately asked excitedly: "Brother Li, did King Wei really say such a stupid thing as killing his son and passing on his brother?" ”

"Brother Eldest Sun, your news is too well-informed, right?" Li Xiu couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly when he heard the words of the eldest grandson Wuji, when Li Tai said this yesterday, only he and Li Shimin were present, but it was only one night, and the eldest grandson Wuji knew about it, which made people a little uneasy.

"Hahahaha~, this news is not what I heard, but leaked from King Wei, and now it has begun to circulate among some people, it is estimated that it will not be long before Li Tai will become the laughing stock of Man Chang'an!" The eldest grandson Wuji laughed out loud at this time.

"Li Tai?" Li Xiu was stunned for a moment when he heard the words of the eldest grandson Wuji, and then shook his head with a wry smile and said, "I understand, it is estimated that His Majesty verbally promised to make him the crown prince yesterday, so he excitedly showed off to his subordinates, which exposed his stupidity." ”

"Your Majesty really agreed to make Li Tai the crown prince yesterday?" The eldest grandson Wuji inquired about Li Xiu again at this time, and he had only just heard some rumors about Li Tai, and it was not good to go to Li Shimin to inquire about the news, so he could only come to Li Xiu.

"Yes, Your Majesty came to me yesterday, and then took me to Nanshan Academy to see Li Tai, and wanted to make Li Tai the crown prince, but Your Majesty was worried that their brothers would kill each other in the future, so Li Tai said stupid things about killing his son and passing on his brother." Li Xiu shook his head again at this time and smiled bitterly, sometimes he couldn't understand Li Tai, saying that he was stupid, but Li Tai's literary talent was first-class, saying that he was smart, sometimes the stupid things he did made people wonder if there was something wrong with his brain?

"Hahahaha~, providence, the position of the prince who has obviously been handed over was lost because of a sentence, I'm afraid this will become the biggest joke in the world, I guess Li Tai will regret his death in the future!" The eldest grandson Wuji received an exact answer, and at that moment he also looked up to the sky and laughed, and a boulder that pressed on the bottom of his heart finally dissipated, he was probably the person in the court who did not want Li Tai to ascend to the throne of the crown prince.

Seeing the happy appearance of the eldest grandson Wuji, Li Xiu shook his head secretly, the reason why the eldest grandson Wuji was so happy, in addition to the fact that he didn't like Li Tai as a person, the most important thing was that he felt that Li Zhi's temperament was weak, and after ascending the throne in the future, he should be able to control Li Zhi with his means, so as to achieve the goal of monopolizing power, but the eldest grandson Wuji didn't know that Li Zhi was not as weak as he imagined, and he fell at the feet of Li Zhi in history.

Of course, the above are the most secret thoughts in the heart of the eldest grandson Wuji, and Li Xiu can only know these because he knows the later history, but now if the eldest grandson Wuji doesn't say it, I'm afraid no one can guess the thoughts in his heart.

"By the way, there was something wrong with His Majesty's expression when he left yesterday, I was really worried that he couldn't bear this blow, how is His Majesty doing now?" At this time, Li Xiu suddenly thought of the scene of Li Shimin's departure yesterday, and couldn't help but ask worriedly.

Speaking of which, Li Shimin is really unlucky this year, first the two sons rebelled one after another, and then the most favored son completely disappointed him, under the continuous blows of the three connections, there was not even a little respite left for Li Shimin, which made Li Xiu also very worried about whether Li Shimin could bear it?

Hearing Li Xiu ask about Li Shimin's situation, the eldest grandson Wuji also showed a solemn expression and said: "According to the news I received, after Your Majesty went back yesterday, he didn't sleep almost all night, and this morning he summoned the King of Jin into the palace, it seems that he has already made a decision in his heart, and the crown prince must be the King of Jin!" ”

"Your Majesty has been hit hard, I'm really worried about his body, I hope that the pheasant slave can comfort Your Majesty well, at least let Your Majesty feel relieved, don't be sad because of my son's matter!" Li Xiu sighed at this time and said, he really hopes that this year will pass quickly, maybe next year, everything will slowly return to normal.

Hearing Li Xiu's words, the eldest grandson Wuji also showed a silent expression, although he was utilitarian, he was also loyal to Li Shimin, and the relationship between the two was not only a monarch and a minister, but also a friend, so he also didn't want Li Shimin to have an accident.

A few days later, Li Tai's stupid words about killing his son and passing on his brother finally spread throughout Chang'an, and Li Tai finally understood what kind of stupid thing he had done after the guidance around him, and hurriedly ran into the palace to ask Li Shimin for his guilt, hoping to save the situation.

But Li Shimin saw Li Tai's son completely this time, he didn't even see Li Tai again, and as a result, Li Tai knelt outside the Ganlu Hall for a day and a night, fainted and was carried back, and Li Shimin never came out to see him during this period, which also means that Li Tai completely lost the position of prince at his fingertips.

"Sir, do you think I can really take on the responsibility of the crown prince?" In Li Xiu's study, Li Zhi sat there with a confused face and asked, as if asking Li Xiu and himself.

"Now this situation is no longer a question of whether you can afford it, but you have to carry this burden, because there is no one else who is suitable for this position except you!" Li Xiu sighed at this time and said.

Today, Li Zhi came to find him, and as soon as they met, he told him one thing, that is, Li Shimin had decided to let him inherit the position of the prince, which made Li Zhi feel very sudden, because he had always felt that the position of the prince belonged to his fourth brother Li Tai, so he had no intention of competing for the throne, but he didn't expect that this position suddenly fell on his head, which made him a little confused for a while, so he came to ask Li Xiu for advice.

"But...... But I'm really afraid that I can't bear this burden, especially when I think about managing a huge empire in the future, I don't have a little bottom in my heart. Li Zhi was worried again at this time, not only did he not have any preparation for this matter, but also did not have any confidence in himself.

Seeing Li Zhi's worried appearance, Li Xiu couldn't help but smile again at this time: "Pheasant slave, you don't have to worry too much, there is nothing in this world that you can't learn, babies want to talk and walk, and they also need the guidance of their parents, not to mention that you are doing quite well in Bingzhou, since you can govern a state now, and you have accumulated experience in the future, there is nothing wrong with governing a country!" ”

"Really, sir, do you think I can really do it?" Hearing Li Xiu's words, Li Zhi finally had a little confidence, but it was still a little insufficient, so he finally asked again.

"Of course, and do you know what the most important thing is to be an emperor?" Li Xiu smiled again at this time, Li Zhi's temperament is indeed a little weak, but this also has advantages, that is, he can listen to the advice of others, which he is stronger than Li Shimin, Li Chengqian and others.

"What is it?" Li Zhi couldn't help but ask at this time.

"Hehe, as an emperor, in fact, you don't need to know how to use soldiers, nor do you need to be able to write splendid articles, let alone know how to be ingenious, because for the emperor, you only need to put the right people in the right place, and the simple thing is to use people!" Li Xiu replied again with a smile on his face.

"Employing people?" Li Zhi also showed a thoughtful expression when he heard Li Xiu's words, but soon he smiled bitterly and said, "The word "employing people" is easy to say, but it is difficult to do it. ”

"Hahahaha~, you are only fifteen years old now, and you have enough time to learn how to use people, not only will your father teach you, but your uncle and I will also help you, and as an emperor, it is not a big deal to make mistakes occasionally, at most it will be corrected in the future!" I saw Li Xiu laugh at this time and said, Li Zhi is still too young after all, and sometimes he seems too anxious, he still has a long way to go if he wants to be an excellent emperor.

Hearing Li Xiu's words, Li Zhi also showed a thoughtful expression, and after a long while, he stood up and saluted Li Xiu and said, "Thank you for your guidance, I understand what to do in the future!" ”

But when he said this, he saw Li Zhi suddenly hesitate for a moment, and then he approached Li Xiu and asked in a low voice: "Sir, there is something I want to ask you about!" ”

"What's the matter?" Li Xiu saw Li Zhishen's mysterious appearance, and asked with some curiosity at the moment.

"Actually, it's nothing, but I heard that my father was originally going to pass on the crown prince position to the fourth brother, but the fourth brother lost the crown prince because of what he said, is this true?" Although Li Zhi got the crown prince, he only heard about Li Tai, because Li Shimin didn't tell him.

"Yes, your fourth brother did lose the position of the crown prince who came to his hands because of a sentence." Li Xiu also sighed at this time and replied, he felt that this matter should not be hidden from Li Zhi, because he would know about it sooner or later.

"Will the father punish the fourth brother, I heard that the fourth brother knelt in front of his father's bedroom for a day and a night a few days ago, but the father didn't see the fourth brother, this is something that has never happened." Li Zhi immediately asked with concern at this time, and at the same time showed an uneasy expression on his face, after all, even Li Tai, who had always been favored, lost the crown prince because of a word, which made him very insecure.
