Chapter 358: Negotiation and Compromise (2)
Li Xuan pointed to the palace and said to the Tang Emperor Li Shimin: "As long as Your Majesty tells the ministers to let His Royal Highness the King of Jin stay in this palace and not open a mansion in Chang'an City, it's fine."
His Royal Highness the King of Jin stays in my Tang Palace, which can guarantee His Majesty's protection of His Royal Highness the King of Jin; If you don't open a mansion in Chang'an City, the ministers can rest assured that His Royal Highness the King of Jin will definitely not become the prince of my Tang Dynasty, and when the prince and the king of Wei fight, he will sit on the tiger and watch the tiger fight and laugh to the end.
If His Royal Highness the King of Jin does not open a mansion in Chang'an City, then the King of Jin will not have his own team, and he will not have the support of his own forces in the court. According to the law of the Tang Dynasty, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, and the ministers are also not allowed to stretch their hands too long into the Tang Palace. His Royal Highness the King of Jin also severed ties with the forces in the court. As we all know, if you want to become the prince of my Tang Dynasty, it is absolutely impossible to do it without the support of the forces of the DPRK and China, and a prince who does not have his own people, his own cronies, and his own forces will not be able to convince the public and control the situation of the court no matter what. In this way, Xiao Yu and they will inevitably rest assured, and they will inevitably allow His Royal Highness King Jin to stay in this palace and stay in Chang'an City, the capital of the Tang Dynasty. ”
Li Shimin was overjoyed, and then said with a sad face: "What King Yong'an said is reasonable, it is good for the young slave to stay in the palace now, but he has always stayed in the palace and has no power of his own, how can it be done in the future?" Only when the young slave opens a mansion in Chang'an City, can I match the capable ministers and officials to him as his subordinate officials of the Jin Palace, and become his own force, so that he can gradually gain the support of the ministers in the court and win the dependence of the court talents, so that in the future, I canonize him as my Tang prince, and he can have his own people and horses, and his own forces support and support. Only by inheriting the unification in the future can he reuse his team and his own forces to completely control the situation. ”
Li Xuan comforted Li Shimin and said: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the King of Jin is still young now, and in a few years." The situation in the court has changed, and at that time, it will not be too late for His Majesty to let His Royal Highness the King of Jin open a mansion in Chang'an City, and have his own mansion, his own subordinate officials, his own descendants, and his own forces. Now that His Royal Highness the King of Jin is staying in the palace and staying by His Majesty's side, it is not more conducive for His Majesty to protect His Royal Highness the King of Jin. Isn't it more conducive to His Majesty's words and deeds to His Royal Highness the King of Jin, and isn't it more conducive to increasing the father-son relationship between His Majesty and His Royal Highness the King of Jin? ”
Li Shimin was slightly stunned, then sighed and said, "Yes." After that, I can only take one step and see one step. Prince Chengqian and Li Tai, King of Wei, as well as the forces behind them, will definitely fight more and more, and wait until Prince Chengqian and Li Tai, King of Wei, are both defeated. It was when I introduced Li Zhi, the king of Jin, as the prince of the Tang Dynasty. By that time, the Guanlong nobles, the Shandong wealthy clan, and the southern scholar clan will inevitably be exhausted and defeated. I believe that they will definitely have to support Li Zhi, the king of Jin, to become my prince of the Tang Dynasty. Even if they don't want to, there will definitely be forces that choose to support King Jin.
Increase the affection between father and son, the most lacking thing in this palace is family affection. Fathers, sons, and brothers have been marked with politics one by one, and each of them has the support of various forces behind them, and each of them has their own small circle. Their mother's family, their wives' family, the family and the court ministers who are good friends with their mother's family, and the families and court ministers who are good friends with their wives' families, are intertwined with each other. Winding and winding. Each of them is like a stone falling into the water, and each of them can make its own waves and form its own circle. The families and court ministers in these circles provide him with help, and he always represents the interests of the families and court ministers in his circle, and protects the interests of the families and court ministers in the circle. Each of them has different abilities, and those with stronger ability form a larger circle, and those with weaker ability form a smaller circle.
Take my two sons, Prince Chengqian and Wei King Li Tai, for example, they are all my sons-in-law, but since they were marked with political marks, they were supported by the Guanlong nobles, the Shandong Hao clan, and the Southern Shi clan, and they seemed to have suddenly become people who supported their forces. It's like I'm really just a person. I know that they actually want to inherit Li Tang Sheji in their hearts, but how can their words and deeds have a trace of Li Tang Sheji's position, what they defend and defend is just the interests of the forces behind them.
Prince Chengqian and Li Tai, King of Wei, are both my sons, and they have all grown up, but once I enter the big vanity fair of politics, I feel that I am getting farther and farther away from them, and the relationship between father and son is getting weaker and weaker.
The most ruthless, it's royal. I'm getting older and older, and I cherish the little bit of family affection I have, but I have a heart, and the prince Chengqian and Li Tai, the king of Wei, don't understand it. It's hard to be an emperor, it's hard to be a father, it's even harder to be an emperor and a father, and it's even more difficult to keep the little bit of family affection that remains. ”
Chang'an City, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, is the residence of the Chinese scholar Lang Cen Wenwen.
In the study, the head of the Southern Shi clan, Lang Cen Wenwen, the secretary and supervisor Xiao Yu, and the head of the Shandong Hao clan, Cui Gan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Lu Chengqing, the head of the Ministry of War, sat opposite each other.
Cui Gan stood up first and complained to Xiao Yu: "Lord Xiao, what happened to your Southern Shi clan this morning? Why did you suddenly ask Your Majesty to send His Royal Highness the King of Jin to Bingzhou to serve as a vassal? Now I, the Shandong Hao clan and your southern Shi clan, have jointly supported His Royal Highness the King of Wei, in order to overthrow the crown prince Chengqian, who was supported by the Guanlong aristocratic group, and let His Royal Highness the King of Wei become the prince of the Tang Dynasty and inherit the unification in the future. Why did Lord Xiao Yu Xiao suddenly let the crown prince Chengqian go, and instead went to participate in the performance, he went to participate in a minor Jin king, and as a result, the king of Jin was not kicked out of Chang'an City, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, but almost drove His Royal Highness King Wei out of Chang'an City. Lord Xiao Yuxiao, if you do this, you must give us an explanation. ”
Xiao Yu was just about to open his mouth to explain, but Cen Wenwen said: "Let Your Majesty send His Royal Highness the King of Jin to Bingzhou to serve as a vassal, this matter is not the fault of Lord Xiao Yu Xiao, that is my idea." (To be continued.) )
