Chapter 1685: The Battle of the Outskirts (Medium)

As soon as His Majesty Li Er's words that he wanted to crown Guo Ye as the king of Qin came out, it immediately set off a storm in the hearts of the courtiers!

King Qin!

This is the King of Qin!

His Majesty Li Er's name before he ascended the throne!

When Guo Ye was awarded the title of Duke of Qin, the city was full of turmoil. If this is really crowned King of Qin, the consequences are really unimaginable!

With the political wisdom of His Majesty Li Er, could he not have thought of this?

Since he thought of it, why did he unswervingly crown Guo Ye as the king of Qin? Not to mention the significance of this title, let's just say that Guo Ye himself is now the King of Qin, what kind of credit will he make in the future, how should His Majesty Li Er be rewarded? You can't take off your dragon robe and give way, right?

Could it be ...... Is that rumor true? Guo Ye is really the illegitimate son of His Majesty Li Er?

It's not right to have an illegitimate child! How can an illegitimate child be compared to a legitimate child?

Li Zhina, the king of Jin, is the son of His Majesty Li Er, who is talented and intelligent, and he is the unyielding prince of benevolence! Why didn't you crown him the King of Qin?

Could it be because Li Zhi, the king of Jin, is too young? It's also possible. His Majesty Li Er ate so many pills of unknown origin from Tianfu Monk, and he felt very good at that time. But now, the sequelae have appeared, and His Majesty Li Er's physical condition is much worse than before. Maybe His Majesty Li Er felt that he would die soon, and he was afraid that Li Zhi would be too young and his power would fall, and in the end, the great rivers and mountains would fall into the hands of powerful ministers? That's why you want to pass on Guo Ye?

Still not right! Li Zhi, the king of Jin, is young, isn't there still Li You, the king of Qi? King Qi is about to be eighteen, what is there to worry about handing over the country to him?

Oops! Broken! It must be that His Majesty Li Er heard the rumor of the Pipa Girl, and he was already dissatisfied with Li You, the king of Qi! This throne would rather be passed to the illegitimate son Guo Ye than to Li You, the king of Qi!

People are of the same mind and reason, and several high-ranking officials present have thought of this possibility! What kind of credit is too big, obviously the status is too high! His Majesty Li Er named Guo Ye as the king of Qin, which is a hint! No, not by implication, by explicit!

It's about the ownership of the throne, even Wei Zheng, who is famous for daring to admonish, doesn't dare to speak! The last time he helped the crown prince to be built, he had already bet on the wrong treasure once, but fortunately he met His Majesty Li Er, the first emperor of the ages, so he was able to make a comeback. This time I bet on the wrong treasure again, who knows if there is such good luck? Among Guo Ye's many reputations, there is no such thing as magnanimity!

Wei Zheng didn't dare to speak, and someone dared to speak, that was Wei Ting, the secretary of the Criminal Department.

To say that Guo Ye is in power, which high-ranking official present has the greatest influence? This is the only one.

Wei Ting, that is the father-in-law of Li You, the king of Qi. Her daughter has married Li You and has become the princess of Qi. If Li You becomes the emperor, then his daughter will be the empress. Wei Ting is the emperor's father-in-law, the father-in-law of the Eight Classics.

On the contrary, if Guo Ye becomes the emperor, then ...... His Majesty Li Er is killing his brother and killing his brother, and Guo Ye ascended to the throne as an illegitimate child, so what good fruit can King Qi eat? Wei Ting, the father-in-law of King Qi, can save his life.

Wei Ting was anxious at that time, and said, "Your Majesty, absolutely not, absolutely not!" ”

"Why not?"

"Uh......" Wei Ting really didn't have the courage to lift the lid! To explain the words, isn't this forcing His Majesty Li Er to admit the identity of Guo Ye's illegitimate son?

He had to say: "Weichen and Zhongshu Ling Wei have the same opinion, it is impossible for the Duke of Qin to make a great contribution enough to seal the king of Qin, so he said that it must not be!" ”

"Well, it seems that if I don't say that I am ugly, you will not give up. In fact, the great work of the Qin State has already been said! ”

"Did you say that?"

"It's the marriage between the Duke of Qin and Queen Shandeok. In the early dynasties, there were many people, and some things were difficult for me to announce. In fact, Qin Guogong also had a secret mission to Silla this time, that is, to find a way to gain the favor of Queen Seondeok! To put it vulgarly, it is to hook up with Queen Seondeok! He's ordered to pick up girls. Now that he has successfully completed the task I have given him, I will naturally reward him for his meritorious deeds. ”

Wei Zheng frowned, and before His Majesty Li Er could speak, he continued: "Zhongshu Ling, don't tell me anything about the whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister's nonsense. This is the goal that our Tang monarchs and ministers should work towards, not the current result. Hmph, isn't it the king's minister on the shore of the land? If I send an official to Silla to be an official, do you think Queen Seondeok will agree? Will the taxes of the people of Silla be paid to me or to Queen Seondeok? Isn't that obvious? Why should we deceive ourselves! ”

Wei Ting said: "Even so, then Qin Guogong's move only deepened the affection between our Tang Dynasty and Silla. There is merit, but the merit is not great, and it is far from worthy of His Majesty's outskirts, let alone being crowned King of Qi. ”

"You're a complete rat!" His Majesty Li Er said: "I want to restore the homeland of the Qin and Han dynasties in my lifetime. Whether it is Goguryeo, Baekje or Silla, it must be returned to the Tang Dynasty. ”

Under normal circumstances, Wei Zheng should have stood up at this time and accused His Majesty Li Er of being reckless. But today's situation was special, Wei Zheng opened his mouth and swallowed the words again.

Fang Xuanling coughed and said, "Your Majesty, Goguryeo and Baekje can be regarded as the homeland of the Han Dynasty. But it is said that Silla is the homeland of the Han Dynasty...... It's a bit far-fetched. Most of Silla's land was not within the four counties of Han. ”

"Hmph, even so, how can someone snore on the side of the couch?"

"Uh......" His Majesty Li Er is clearly unreasonable, what is mine is mine, as for yours...... If it's close to me, it's mine, and Fang Xuanling has no choice, and said: "That is to expand the territory, which is different from recovering the old land." ”

His Majesty Li Er said: "My Tang Dynasty has a strong army, and it is not difficult to defeat these three countries, but the difficult thing is to make the people of the three countries return to their hearts." The people of the three countries have been separated from China for hundreds of years, and they have long forgotten that they were once Chinese people. Among the people of these three kingdoms, Silla is the most important! ”

He paused slightly, and said, "What Shangshu's right servant said just now also makes sense, the land of Silla is not the homeland of the Tang Dynasty. The customs and folklore and even the grammar are unique, which is completely different from our Datang. It's easy to bring down Silla, but it's hard to win the hearts of the people of Silla! If the Duke of Qin can marry Queen Seondeok, then I will let their descendants rule Silla temporarily, and then slowly change the land and return to the stream, and after a few decades, Silla can be truly integrated into the Tang Dynasty. Qin Guogong has such a great achievement, is it not enough to be crowned King of Qin? ”

Can't reach it!

Not at all!

Not at all!

This is the unanimous thought of everyone present!

His Majesty Li Er's eloquence is really not understood by these people! In these years, even if there is really a merit of slaughtering the city and destroying the country, some people will say that it is a reckless military force and not worth advocating. What's more, is it the kind of credit that doesn't work right away?

The one who can really understand His Majesty Li Er in these years really has to be Guo Ye. Although he does not have the eloquence of His Majesty Li Er, he has more than two thousand years of knowledge, so he naturally knows His Majesty Li Er's good intentions.

However, although people do not understand the eloquence of His Majesty Li Er. However, this does not hinder everyone's rich imagination, and people unanimously believe that His Majesty Li Er's remarks are completely making excuses!

As for the purpose of making excuses, it is naturally to make Guo Ye the king of Qin, and then announce the fact that Guo Ye is the illegitimate son of His Majesty Li Er at the right time, and finally pass on Guo Ye.

It is a matter of the ownership of the throne, although everyone thinks that it is better to pass on the throne to Li Zhi or Li You, but no one dares to express their position! Who knows which cloud has rain? I think that the crown prince was built with huge power and had the status of the prince, but he was not overturned by His Majesty Li Er! Who can be sure that Guo Ye is not the second Zhenguan Emperor?

If you say the wrong thing at this time, the next day will be the sin of raiding your family and exterminating your family!

The ministers neither supported nor approved. For a while, in the hall, there was no sound!

Others can pretend to be deaf and dumb, but Wei Ting can't! Ever since his daughter married Li You, he has been regarded as a hardcore Qi king! Wei Ting secretly thought in his heart that it would be beneficial for Guo Ye to make things clear, so he could only be confused, and follow the meaning of His Majesty Li Er, and attack the shield of the son with the spear of the son! In any case, Guo Ye can't be allowed to become the king of Qin!

He sorted out his thoughts and said, "Your Majesty, if the Duke of Qin can really let Silla integrate into the Tang Dynasty, it is indeed not an exaggeration to make him the King of Qin!" But isn't it still happening? He just has the intention of marrying Queen Seondeok, and there are still 108,000 miles before Silla enters the Tang Dynasty. ”

His Majesty Li Er nodded and said, "You have a point in saying that!" ”

Wei Ting was overjoyed, knelt on the ground, and said, "Your Majesty Shengming!" ”

"But what about ......" His Majesty Li Er sighed softly and said, "After marrying Jindeman, how should I be rewarded, I have already promised the Duke of Qin." There is a way to say that you have no jokes! If I don't make him the king of Qin, wouldn't it be a matter of talking? ”

"This ......" Wei Ting listened to it and didn't spurt out a mouthful of blood, and thought to himself, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, in order to help Guo Ye ascend, you are simply shameless! Don't talk about the king of Qin, you just said that you once promised to pass on the throne to Guo Ye, who can expose you? This is a completely unproven thing!

At this moment, someone said: "Your Majesty, Weichen has a plan, which can not only prevent Your Majesty from breaking his promise, but also convince Master Wei!" ”

It was Zhang Liang who spoke.
