Chen Shuda saw that Li Jiancheng's expression was abnormal, and hurriedly asked! "Does Your Highness know anything?"

Li Jiancheng's face became extremely solemn, and he said slowly: "About the end of last year, Zhang Bingzhi, a pharmacist in the palace, died mysteriously, and later the imperial doctor checked the pill he concocted and found that there was toxicity in the medicine. ”

This conclusion made Chen Shuda frown, "But this person has long since died, and all the clues have been broken, how can this be investigated?" ”

Li Jiancheng shook his head, "Actually, the clue is not broken, Zhang Bingzhi's wife is missing, I sent someone to my hometown to find her, and there is no news, this woman should be the one in the know, but even if I can't find her, I know who is the mastermind behind the scenes?" ”

Speaking of this, Li Jiancheng gritted his teeth, "He even dared to shoot his own brother to death, what else did he dare not do?" ”

Chen Shuda was startled, and hurriedly waved his hand, "Your Highness, you can't draw conclusions about this matter without evidence, and besides, it may also be the Sui Dynasty's doing." ”

"Humph!"

Li Jiancheng sneered, "Does Chen Xiangguo think it will be the Sui Dynasty?" ”

"Your Highness, what Weichen means is that if the conflict intensifies now, it will be detrimental to Your Highness."

Li Jiancheng could still accept this point of view, he nodded, "You are right, he holds the military power, and if the conflict intensifies now, it will indeed be bad for me." ”

At this time, a eunuch reported at the door: "Your Highness, the Holy One has woken up."

Li Jiancheng and Chen Shuda were overjoyed, and stood up together and walked to the next ward.

……

Li Yuan had slowly woken up, fainted for nearly three hours, his mind was a little blurry, and he couldn't remember many things for a while.

Concubine Yin De was carefully feeding him porridge, her heart was full of sorrow, at this time she suddenly felt that the saint was aging, the saint was already in his last years, and he was only in his early twenties, what should I do in the future?

At this time, a eunuch came in to report, "Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Chen Xiangguo want to ask for Your Majesty." ”

Li Yuan waved his hand to Concubine Yin Defei with difficulty, and Concubine Yin Defei understood, and hurriedly put down the porridge bowl and left from the back door, but when she walked behind the screen, she hesitated again and quietly hid behind the screen.

The crown prince Li Jiancheng and Chen Shuda walked in, the two knelt down in front of Li Yuan's couch, Li Jiancheng held his father's hand, and tears welled up at once, "Father! ”

Li Yuan touched his head and laughed hard, "Why should you be like this? ”

He said to Chen Shuda again: "Go and invite a few Xiangguo, I have something to say." ”

Chen Shuda got up to go out, Li Yuan remembered something again, and instructed: "And King Qin, call them together." ”

Li Yuan felt a little tired, slowly closed his eyes, and in a moment, the five ministers of the political hall hurriedly walked in, and everyone felt extremely relieved when they heard that Li Yuan woke up, as long as Li Yuan was okay, the sky of the Tang Dynasty would not fall.

"Ladies and gentlemen...... Please sit down! Li Yuan's sanity began to recover little by little.

The eunuch moved a few fingers to sit on the couch, and everyone sat down one by one beside Li Yuan, Li Yuan motioned to the two eunuchs, and the eunuch hurriedly helped him to sit up.

Li Yuan only fainted for a short time, his body was not affected much, and when he gradually recovered his senses, he was no different from usual.

However, Li Yuan himself knew that his dizziness was getting worse and worse, and it had reached the point of fainting, which made him disheartened, and some things had to be explained.

He sighed and said to everyone: "I need to recuperate for a while, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of too much of the affairs of the court, and in the future, the government affairs of the court and the central government will be temporarily overtaken by the prince, and there is no need to report to me." ”

In fact, the government affairs of the imperial court have always been handled by the crown prince Li Jiancheng, but in the past, the government affairs were shared for Li Yuan, and the ministers in the court still reported government affairs to Li Yuan, and now Li Yuan officially handed over the government affairs to Li Jiancheng, and the ministers will go to the East Palace to report to the prince in the future, and the nature of the two is completely different.

The ministers looked at each other, and everyone actually heard that there was a deep meaning in Li Yuan's words, and it seemed that there was a intention to give way, at this time, Chen Shuda cautiously suggested: "Your Majesty, why don't you directly crown His Royal Highness the Crown Prince as the prince of the prison country and correct his name." ”

Li Yuan only let Li Jiancheng take charge of government affairs, but did not mention military affairs, while Chen Shuda's proposal to seal the prison country included military affairs and became the military and political affairs.

Li Jiancheng's face changed, and he was about to object, but Li Yuan sighed, "People's energy is always limited, and all affairs are handed over to the prince, I am afraid that he will not be able to bear it for a while, the prince is temporarily in charge of government affairs, and the king of Qin is responsible for military affairs." ”

As soon as these words came out, the five Xiangguo present, including Li Jiancheng, couldn't help but sigh secretly, and Li Yuan finally chose to compromise.

Xiao Li bowed and said, "Your Majesty's decision-making is wise and decisive, and the minister resolutely supports His Highness." ”

Xiao Li's statement surprised everyone, if Pei Lin made such a statement, it would be understandable, after all, Pei Lin was a person of King Qin, and Xiao Li was a well-known neutral, always fair and selfless, how could he support this kind of compromise that would leave hidden dangers.

In fact, Xiao Li understands the helplessness of Shengping's decision, there are still 130,000 troops in the Guanzhong area, of which 80,000 elites are distributed in Fufeng County, which are firmly in the hands of the King of Qin.

And now that Jingxiang is defeated, Bashu is in danger, and Datang has reached a precarious time, stability is the first priority at this time, and only by recognizing the respective interests of their brothers can they unite with the outside world, so Li Yuan made the decision to separate the military and the government, although it was very helpless, but it was also a wise move, and Xiao Li would clearly express his support.

Li Yuan nodded, Xiao Li still knew his heart, and at this time, the eunuch at the door reported: "Your Majesty, the King of Qin has arrived, waiting outside the palace." ”

"Announce him to the temple!"

Not long after, Li Shimin hurriedly walked into the ward, and he also knelt down in front of his father, crying: "Father and Emperor Long are in poor health, and his sons can't wait to replace him."

After all, it is his own son, although Li Yuan once wanted to abolish Li Shimin's military power and put him in the deep palace, but when he was weak and sick, the feeling of licking the calf could not help but arise spontaneously, he gently stroked his son's head, and thought of the situation when he was a child, and his eyes were a little moist.

"Emperor, you can help Brother Huang!"

This sentence made Li Shimin's heart jump suddenly, what does this mean, has his father passed the throne to the imperial brother?

Li Yuan beckoned to Li Jiancheng again, "Prince, come over too." ”

Li Jiancheng and his brother Shimin stood shoulder to shoulder, kneeling down in front of Li Yuan together, Li Yuan looked at the two brothers, thinking that they had been close since childhood, thinking that Jiancheng would take Shimin around to play, which was the greatest satisfaction as a father.

But since they drank the poisonous wine of power, the brothers gradually turned against each other, and it became a life-and-death struggle, which was not as good as the brothers of a peasant family, Li Yuan couldn't help but feel infinite emotion in his heart.

"Because my father's health is not good, his physique is weak, and he needs to recuperate for a period of time, I have decided to hand over the military and political power to the two of you, and become the ruler, and the people of the world will be in charge of the army.

Only then did Li Shimin understand his father's deep meaning, he actually handed over the military power to him, he was overjoyed, but he didn't dare to show it, his face was still full of sadness, and he kowtowed heavily, "Obey my father's orders!" ”

The crown prince also sighed in his heart, since his father had made it clear that it was irreparable, he had to kowtow and thank him.

Li Yuan also ordered the eunuch to bring the military talisman and the national seal, and he handed over the national seal to Jiancheng, "Although I have not appointed you as a prisoner, you can do the work of supervising the country, and this national seal is still in the hands of Fu Xilang, but you can call it at any time." ”

"Father Xie trusts."

Li Jiancheng kowtowed again to thank him, and his eyes couldn't help but glance at the nine tiger talismans in the jade box, that is the power of the world, the 'one who wins the army' wins the world, "how can he not understand" It's just that his father actually gave it to his second brother, which made Li Jiancheng gloomy for a while.

Of course, he can also understand his father's good intentions, and at a critical juncture, stability is the most important, but when the second brother is involved in these military powers, will he really consider maintaining stability first?

Li Jiancheng had a lot of thoughts in his heart, and he was worried.

Li Yuan pushed the jade box of the talisman to Li Shimin again, but he still hesitated for a moment and took out four tiger guard talismans from the box, which were the talismans of the 40,000 garrisons in the capital.

This subtle move made everyone present feel a burst of consternation, and the saint's move directly exposed his mind, the saint still didn't believe in King Qin in his bones, and there was a glimmer of hope in Li Jiancheng's heart.

Li Shimin solemnly took the talisman, he smiled bitterly in his heart, now the 210,000 troops of the Tang Dynasty and the 50,000 troops of Bashu are in the hands of King Wuji of Qi, and the talisman cannot move him, and the 30,000 troops are besieged by the Sui army in Xiangyang, which is also meaningless.

And now the 40,000 soldiers stationed in Beijing were taken away by his father, in fact, he only mastered 90,000 people, among the 90,000 troops, 80,000 troops stationed in Caifeng County were originally in his hands, in the final analysis, he only got 10,000 more Hanzhong troops, which were in charge of Luo Yi, but Luo Yi was the prince's person.

In fact, the military talisman is just a form for him, if one day his father wants to take back his military power, will he dare not obey?

Thinking of this, Li Shimin kowtowed again and said: "The son-in-law thanks his father for his trust, and the son-in-law has one more thing, which is to ask his father for instructions alone." ”

Li Yuan nodded and said to everyone: "You all go down!" ”

Several ministers got up and retreated, Li Shimin couldn't help but glance at Li Jiancheng again, he saw that Li Jiancheng didn't move, and reminded him: "Can the imperial brother also temporarily retreat." ”

Li Jiancheng couldn't hold back any longer, and said angrily: "Second brother, is there anything you can't let Brother Wei know?" ”

He is already in charge of the state seal and has the power of government affairs, even if he does not care about the army, does he not even have the power to listen?

Li Shimin groaned and said, "Brother Huang, it's my family matter, I'm sorry!" ”

Li Jiancheng had no choice but to get up and leave angrily, and when Li Jiancheng left, Li Yuan smiled faintly and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Of course he knew that it would not be a family matter, Li Shimin kowtowed heavily, "Father, please be sure to transfer the fourth brother back to Chang'an, and you must not let him take charge of the military power of Bashu again, otherwise Shu will definitely be defeated in his hands, and the defeat of Taiyuan is his responsibility." ”

At this time, Concubine Yin De, who was hiding behind the screen, couldn't help jumping in her heart. (To be continued)
