Chapter 229: Li Tai's future is worrying
Li Shimin didn't go to bed so early, where can he sleep? After Li Chengqian usurped the throne, he arranged him in Da'an Palace, and he didn't want the emperor Li Yuan to feel sick after knowing this, so he asked Li Chengqian to arrange him to Daming Palace to take care of Li Yuan. Li Shimin has always felt guilty about Li Yuan, but now he has embarked on Li Yuan's old path, and Li Shimin at this time can feel some of Li Yuan's mood back then.
Since Li Yuan picked up a life from a serious illness a few years ago, he has a state of mind that sees through the red dust, and since then he has paid great attention to maintaining his body, practicing Tai Chi and caressing the pipa, not to mention making villains, and even the "point soldier" that he has been obsessed with has not played. The hermit Liu family has a lot of insight into diet, so he asked the Liu family to formulate reasonable eating habits for him. The result is very good, and I have lived to this day, and now I am nearly eighty years old.
However, no matter how good the conditioning method is, it can't make up for the damage to the soul, and Li Yuan himself knows that he can't stand it this time, so he confessed to Li Shimin: "The pipa on the table will be given to you, and you can play with it when you are bored in the future." ”
Li Shimin was speechless, he knew, Li Yuanchan played the pipa every time he felt something, and he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion when he thought that he could only do this in the future.
"Although Qian'er is talented, but has no great ambitions, if it ascends to the throne of God one day, it will inevitably indulge in wine and fun, if there is no virtuous minister to assist, I am afraid that it will mislead the country and the people. However, Hou Junji and other people who instigated Qian'er to usurp the throne and seize power are all people who chase fame and fortune, and they are really embarrassed to take on great responsibilities. As for the other ministers, I'm afraid that Qian'er will not be reused. If so, Datang's prospects are worrisome! ”
"Father, rest assured, the son has already told Fang Xuanling and others to focus on the overall situation and assist Qian'er wholeheartedly."
"That's good." Li Yuan said again, "And Tai'er, can you explain?" Qian'er is like you, usually kind, but you can be ruthless, I'm afraid Tai'er's life will not be easy. ”
"Not really, right?" Li Shimin didn't think so, "Qian'er is different from his sons, first, he ascended the throne as the crown prince, and second, he has never met Tai'er, so how can he embarrass Tai'er?" ”
"But Qian'er also has a few differences from you, one is narrow-minded, the second is that he has a broken sleeve and a stigma and a foot disease, the third is that Tai'er is deeply popular with the people, and fourth, he is complemented by vain ministers like Junhou Ji. Maybe the two brothers can live together in harmony in the short term, but it is difficult to say in the future. ”
Li Shimin also thought about the four points that Li Yuan said, but he always believed that Li Chengqian and Li Tai did not have a grudge, and it was unlikely that they would go to the point of fratricide.
At this time, the door was opened with a slight squeak, Li Shimin saw that the person who came was dressed in black, and thought it was an assassin, and was about to get up to call someone, but he saw that the man in black uncovered his face scarf and looked at it, it turned out to be Wang Haoran!
"Haoran? Why do you dress up like this? Li Shimin said unexpectedly.
"The situation in the palace is unknown, and the younger brother does not dare to rashly take His Royal Highness the King of Shu back to Beijing, so I want to come to explore the situation first." Wang Haoran saluted, and then found Li Yuan lying on the bed sickly, and asked, "Emperor Taishang, what's wrong with you?" ”
"When you're old, you're prone to this disease." Li Yuan said disapprovingly.
"Haoran, didn't I write to you and Tai'er to go back to Beijing together? If you come back secretly like this, it will be easier for Qian'er to feel a gap. Li Shimin was a little reproachful.
"Your Majesty, my brother has never received your letter, my brother and His Royal Highness the King of Shu have received a letter from the Ministry of Rites, saying that Your Majesty is ill and wants us to rush back to the capital."
Li Shimin was stunned for a while, in his letters to Wang Haoran and Li Tai, he only told them that when Li Chengqian ascended the throne, he should be well assisted, isn't this what Li Chengqian wants? He wouldn't have even withheld the letter, would he?
"Hehe......" Li Yuan smiled bitterly, "What did the widow just say?" Still don't believe you? Qian'er is on guard against Tai'er! ”
As soon as Li Yuan said this, Li Shimin figured it out, it turned out that Li Chengqian was worried that Li Tai would refuse to come back after knowing about this, or raise troops to seize power, so he thought about deceiving Li Tai back first, it seems that Li Chengqian has a lot of concerns about Li Tai! Li Shimin and Li Chengqian agreed before, Li Tai, Li Zhi, and Wang Haoran only need to live in the capital. But now it seems that this is not feasible, Li Chengqian's suspicion made him ignore the brotherhood, once the son of heaven and a courtier, there will inevitably be major changes in the court in the future, among which there will inevitably be many people who are dissatisfied because of this demotion, if these people take the risk of spreading the prince's immorality, or instigate Li Tai to seize power, Li Chengqian will inevitably be restless. However, if Li Tai does not come back, the brotherhood will inevitably fall apart immediately, Li Chengqian's ruthlessness is no worse than Li Shimin, Li Shimin can do things like fratricide and kill his sons and nephews, and Li Chengqian may naturally do things like fratricide.
"Father, what do you think of this?" Li Shimin racked his brains and couldn't come up with a perfect plan.
"The widow has been thinking about it for more than ten years, but he can't think of a good way." Li Yuan smiled bitterly, "The widow is tired, tired ......"
Li Shimin didn't pay much attention to seeing Li Yuan sleep with his eyes closed.
Wang Haoran found that something was wrong, because Li Yuan didn't see the reaction of inhaling after exhaling just now, so he called a few times: "Emperor Taishang, Emperor Taishang......"
Li Shimin also felt inappropriate at this time, patted Li Yuan a few times and called a few times, but Li Yuan didn't have any reaction, so he stretched out his hand to test Li Yuan's snort.
Li Shimin had already been mentally prepared, Li Yuan left quietly, although he felt uncomfortable, there was no need to pretend to pose in front of Wang Haoran, he sighed gloomily, waved his hand to Wang Haoran and said: "You go first, wait for my news, if I still call Tai'er Tai'er in my letter to you or other ministers, you can bring Tai'er back, if it is called Li Tai, you will ...... Just take advantage of the opportunity. ”
"Then Your Majesty take care of yourself, and the younger brother will leave first." Li Yuan had just passed away, and Wang Haoran didn't bother much.
"Well, Tai'er will be handed over to you, be sure to protect it thoroughly."
"The younger brother will live up to His Majesty's trust!"
Wang Haoran returned to the restaurant where he stayed, Liu Xiangyu was already waiting there at this time, and after listening to his report, he learned that there were unknown people watching his residences in Zhongcheng and Chang'an, even the factory. Without thinking too much, Wang Haoran can guess that this must be Li Chengqian's eyeliner, it seems that Li Tai is still a dangerous existence in Li Chengqian's eyes.
Wang Haoran was very annoyed by Li Chengqian's behavior, and in order to avoid their brothers' quarrels, Wang Haoran began to plan more than ten years ago. Who would have thought that Li Chengqian would have such a little energy, which is good, Wang Haoran can be regarded as having lost all his previous efforts. also sent people to keep an eye on them, Wang Haoran couldn't bear it, so he asked Zeng Chengyong to pretend to assist Liu Xiangyu's reconnaissance team to arrest these people and beat them up without asking the reason, and then arrested them and reported them to the official, saying that they had lost something at home, and that these sneaky people were thieves nine times out of ten.
