Chapter 57: Li Longji's Exam Questions

Chapter 57 Li Longji's exam questions outside the Lin De Palace, the crown prince Li Heng came quickly, but he greeted Gao Lishi.

"My nephew has seen Uncle Gao." The crown prince Li Heng grew up under the watchful eye of Gao Lishi, and he gave Gao Lishi a gift to his son and nephew in private.

Gao Lishi has served Li Longji for ten years, and he is the only remaining old man in the East Palace, and he has great weight in Li Longji's mind, even the crown prince Li Heng does not dare to slack off.

"The old slave has seen the prince." Gao Lishi was extremely respectful: "The prince wants to see His Majesty?" ”

"Exactly. Please also ask Uncle Gao to pass through. Prince Li Heng said busily.

"Your Majesty has said that if the crown prince is rewarding Li Changguo, it is better to go back, and this matter cannot be changed." Colliers paraphrased Li Longji's words.

"Ahh The crown prince Li Heng was shocked.

He came this time to reward Li Changguo. The reason is not him, but he thinks that Li Longji can't reward him, and Li Changguo is extremely important to him, he once rescued him, and moreover, he admires Li Changguo's talent, so he is determined to seek justice for Li Changguo, and wants Li Longji to reward him for his merits.

"Please ask Uncle Gao to pass through." The crown prince Li Heng knew that Li Longji was shrewd, and he could guess the thoughts of others and collect his mind.

"Prince, you are embarrassing the old slave." Gao Lishi hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty has a strict decree and must not reply." ”

"Gao Lishi, don't think that this prince respects you, you can do whatever you want." For the crown prince Li Heng, Li Changguo is extremely important, and he must help Li Changguo: "If you don't give you a good deal for the prince, the prince will definitely not let you go." ”

The crown prince Li Heng has always respected Gao Lishi, and it is rare that when he is so violent, Gao Lishi was stunned, looked at Li Heng, and said, "In this case, the prince please come in." ”

"You're not going to go back?" The crown prince Li Heng was a little surprised.

"The prince doesn't know, Your Majesty has a will, if the prince insists on entering, please invite the prince in." Colliers replied with a smile.

The crown prince Li Heng's mouth opened and he never spoke again. It seems that his every move has fallen into Li Longji's calculations. When you meet such a stubborn Lao Tzu, what else can you say?

With a flick of his robe, Prince Li Heng strode in. As soon as he entered the Lin De Palace, he saw Li Longji leaning on the throne, his eyes half-open and half-closed, and he was recuperating.

"Erchen has seen his father." The crown prince Li Heng stepped forward to salute.

"Excuse me." Li Longji opened his eyes, glanced at the crown prince Li Heng, and said, "I've been waiting for you for a long time." Come, come and sit. His right hand slapped at the Jindun beside him, and smiled at Prince Li Heng very kindly.

"This ...... Could it be a ghost? The crown prince Li Heng was secretly strange and very surprised.

Based on the personal experience of the crown prince Li Heng, Li Longji is a strict father, and he has extremely high requirements for his sons, although he has more than 20 sons, none of them can make him look eye, even the crown prince Li Heng is short and tall, and Li Longji himself is very dissatisfied. Yes, he has never given the crown prince Li Heng a good face, let alone the experience of asking him to sit so kindly.

"Father, the son doesn't dare." The crown prince Li Heng hesitated for a while.

"Come, come, our father and son have a good talk." Li Longji's right hand stretched out towards the crown prince Li Heng.

The crown prince Li Heng had to stretch out his hand and let Li Longji hold it in his hand. Li Longji held the hand of the crown prince Li Heng tightly, patted it on the back of his hand a few times, with a look of love and pity, helped the prince Li Heng to sit beside him, looked at the prince Li Heng, and looked at the prince Li Heng, with a look of relief: "Okay, good!" ”

praised a few good words in a row, this is the first time in the memory of Prince Li Heng, Prince Li Heng has the feeling of hitting a ghost.

"Prince, for so many years, my father has been pressing you, and you have suffered." Li Longji smiled, his eyes were full of love, and said, "You have a complaint in your heart, I know." ”

"Father, the son doesn't dare." The crown prince Li Heng has been suppressed very badly over the years, not only Li Longji is suppressing him, but Li Dalinfu is also suppressing him. What made the crown prince Li Heng even more angry was that whenever Li Linfu suppressed him, Li Longji's attitude was very ambiguous and noncommittal, even if he watched the prince Li Heng being pressed to death by Li Linfu, he would not say a word for the crown prince Li Heng.

Over time, the crown prince Li Heng complained about Li Longji. Li Longji made it clear, which made the crown prince Li Heng so shocked that he almost fell.

"Don't be nervous, that's a good thing. If you complain about your father, it means that you still recognize your father as your father, and your father is happy. Li Longji put his right hand on the shoulder of the crown prince Li Heng, motioned for him to sit still, and said, "Prince, do you know what you have done over the years that your father admires the most?" ”

For so many years, the crown prince Li Heng has not satisfied Li Longji with anything, and this really stopped the prince Li Heng.

"What satisfies me the most is that I have been crazy for the past few days and can't wake up, not only did you not have the idea of disobedience because of this, but instead ran around, trying to save my father, which made my father the most happy." Li Longji looked at the crown prince Li Heng, couldn't stop breaking the point, and admired it greatly.

Since Li Longji became crazy, the crown prince Li Heng is facing a golden opportunity to replace Li Longji and ascend to the throne. If he had used some more tricks, he would probably have succeeded, and not only did he not do so, but he also tried every means to save Li Longji.

You must know that becoming the emperor is a huge temptation, even the love between father and son can be ignored. Li Heng did not do this, but was doing what a son should do, which made Li Longji particularly pleased.

Li Longji is the supreme of the Ninety-Five, the emperor, and a person, he has seven emotions and six desires, family affection, and children, if this, what regrets in this life?

"Father, this is what a son should do." The crown prince Li Heng was frightened in his heart. He had such an idea at the time, but finally chose to do his filial piety.

"Think it's okay, it's important to do it." Li Longji was like a roundworm in his stomach, and he saw through the mind of the crown prince Li Heng.

These words almost scared Li Heng to the ground.

"Father knows that you are here for the matter of Li Changguo. Before talking about Li Changguo, my father first said something else. Li Longji changed his words, stared at the crown prince Li Heng, and asked, "Prince, do you know why I have watched Li Linfu suppress you all these years?" ”

"Ahh The crown prince Li Heng's surprise was not trivial, he jumped up and jumped up directly, with a shocked look on his face.

Before, he thought that Li Longji was confused, he didn't distinguish between right and wrong, he couldn't distinguish between things, and he was fooled by Li Linfu, so he watched Li Linfu suppress him and ignored him. Where did you think of it, Li Longji understood in his heart, the surprise of the crown prince Li Heng was not trivial, and he almost went out of his body.

"Li Linfu has always had the heart to abolish you, and he tried to put you to death twice. In order to protect yourself, you divorced the crown princess twice. Li Longji's next words shocked the crown prince Li Heng even more: "At that time, I ignored it, didn't help anyone, and let you fight back and forth. You are so disappointed in your father that you must think, is this still your father's son? How can you not help your son and let outsiders oppress you? ”

Li Linfu has always wanted to abolish the crown prince Li Heng, and he did not hesitate to frame him for this. once forced Li Heng to take a leave of absence from the crown princess twice in order to protect himself. This made the crown prince Li Heng hold a grudge until he became emperor, determined to take revenge, and put to death all those who participated in the rectification of him. Fortunately, Li Mi's advice made him dispel this idea. Otherwise, there will inevitably be a bloody storm.

It is precisely because of this incident that Li Heng was evaluated as a small-bellied chicken intestine.

"Your grievances are difficult for my father to tolerate." Li Longji continued: "If you are only the son of your father, your father will help you no matter what. But you are the crown prince, the person who wants to be the emperor, if you can't even deal with Li Linfu, you are not worthy of becoming the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. People who can't even deal with courtiers are not worthy of becoming the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. ”

Prince Li Heng's mouth was open for a long time, but he didn't say a word.

Over the years, he has always wondered if he is Li Longji's biological son. If it is said that he is his own son, why didn't Li Longji help him, let Li Linfu, Yang Guozhong, and An Lushan deal with him, even if he was put to death, Li Longji would not help him, not even a word of kindness. If he said that he was not his own son, he made him the crown prince.

After listening to Li Longji's words, he suddenly realized that Li Longji wanted to temper him and use Li Linfu, Yang Guozhong, and An Lushan as whetstones to polish him.

Li Longji is right, a person who can't even deal with courtiers is not worthy of being an emperor!

"Woo!" The crown prince Li Heng was so excited that he cried, tears welled up, and he threw himself into Li Longji's arms, saying, "The son is wrong to blame his father." It was the son who blamed his father. ”

Li Longji had a loving smile on his face, patted the back of the crown prince Li Heng, and said with a smile: "You are not wrong, I am not wrong, this is the price that the emperor must pay." ”

Tears welled up in his eyes, and he said: "Your eldest brother died unjustly, and he blamed his father for not knowing what was going on, and he was taken advantage of by the annihilation." Since then, my father has been telling himself in his heart that he must not let another of my sons die. Although my father didn't help you, he wouldn't let you risk life or death. ”

The "disaster of Sanshu" is the pain in Li Longji's heart, and his three sons were framed by Concubine Wu Hui and forced to die. This lesson is too profound, and Li Longji has always buried it in his heart and never told anyone about it. Today, when it came out of his mouth, his heart was also very excited.

The crown prince Li Heng was suddenly, no wonder he faced a desperate situation twice, and only needed Li Linfu to go one step further to force him to death, but Li Longji ordered to terminate the investigation and rescue him, the reason is here.

The crown prince was forced by Li Linfu to divorce the crown princess twice in order to protect himself. However, Li Linfu chased after him relentlessly, and he must pull the crown prince Li Heng off the horse, and he only needs to go one step further to succeed. At this critical moment, Li Longji ordered the case to be terminated and the crown prince Li Heng escaped death.

"Father, why did you tell your son?" The crown prince Li Heng was very surprised.

If Li Longji doesn't say this, no one will know, and he can rot in his stomach.

"Father knows that you will definitely come for Li Changguo's unmeritorious work." Li Longji helped the crown prince Li Heng and asked him to sit down, his face was solemn, and he said, "I have prepared two questions for you, you have to do it well." ”

Examining? The crown prince Li Heng was a little surprised.

"With Li Changguo's merits, it is no problem to be awarded a first-grade title, why did his father confer him with a third-grade title? You have to think about it, this is one of them. Li Longji began to come up with the topic, and said: "Tubo has been pacified, and it is inevitable that the Tang Dynasty will advance westward. ”
