Chapter 135: Giving Advice
"Recently, the affairs of the former harem have been mostly handled by Webster, right?" At the mention of that woman, Princess Taiping's tone became unkind. Even if her identity is today's ** and her sister-in-law, she is unceremonious. After all, it is not a matter of a day or two for the two of them to deal with each other, and there is no need to pretend to be harmonious in front of Li Xian, a person who knows all the inside information. She hasn't had a good appetite lately, and she doesn't want to wronged herself in this kind of detail anymore.
"Yes, I was groggy some time ago, and I really have a weak heart." For this situation, Li Xian has long been surprised, and he is too lazy to correct it in vain: "But since the incident with the crown prince, the queen has returned everything." Now I'm handling the affairs myself. He and Webster have known each other since childhood, and they can be regarded as childhood sweethearts. In addition, he was later degraded out of Beijing by his mother and was in a difficult situation, and Wei Shi never gave up, as always, he stayed by his side and gave birth to a child for him. What's more, Wei has always been clever and has many opinions on court affairs, when he was still the king of Luling, she had repeatedly suggested that she would resolve the crisis for herself, which can be said to be the female middle school. So much so that he has maintained this habit to this day, even though he knows that it is not appropriate, he still entrusts the government affairs to her when he is seriously ill.
To put it mildly, in fact, Webster is much closer in his heart than his mother and the sister in front of him. He unconsciously wanted to trust her, and because of this, he was extra generous and tolerant to Bao'er, which developed this daughter's lawless temperament, which can be regarded as an unexpected mistake.
"Your body is too weak, and if you continue like this, it's just a lamp and boiling oil, and you still have to take care of it." Frowning and looking at his extremely thin body again, Princess Taiping shook her head and continued to say in a deep voice: "Brother Huang, in my opinion, you can only start from two places now. The first is to choose a successor as soon as possible, so as not to covet the throne by others, and finally create a situation surrounded by wolves. Second, it is to appoint a competent person to temporarily replace the state affairs, and it will also save you from being unable to distract yourself from recuperating and giving birth to more troubles. With you, Datang will not be chaotic, and the water in Shendu can be clear, so you have to take care of yourself. After a pause, she pondered for a moment, and then added: "It's just that, no matter what, you can't give the power of proxy to Merriam-Webster." ”
For such a straightforward and unceremonious argument, Li Xian can't come out even if he has a lot of temper. Taiping was not wrong at all, and it was clearly organized, and every word pointed to the point, but he didn't understand, why did he want to target Webster alone? Thinking about it in his heart, Li Xian found that he had always been in a dominant position in front of this sister, and he couldn't find any other way out except to follow her words: "Taiping, I can understand your words, and I don't have any objections." It's just that your malice towards the queen is too great? I know your relationship isn't good, and I've never asked you to change my opinion of her in my face. However, it doesn't seem to be your usual style to abolish the public for personal reasons, right? ”
"It seems that the imperial brother still doesn't understand the meaning of what I said." Leaning back in the chair, Princess Taiping looked at him for a while, and finally waved her hand as if surrendering: "Then I might as well make it clearer." As long as it is your queen, whether she is Webster or Zhang, I will not suggest that you hand over the power of acting to her. This has nothing to do with your love and trust in her, nor does it have anything to do with my personal preferences, it is completely on the facts, and there is no personal emotion involved, so can the royal brother understand? ”
"Is it just because of her status as a queen?" Li Xian's sick eyebrows suddenly flashed a look of understanding, he was so sick that he didn't even have a clear mind, and he didn't even realize this: "Are you worried about the rise of the power of your relatives...... Although Wei's family has withered and is not a too prominent family, but there are still three points of nails in the broken ship, not to mention that their family has a **. After the development of the past few years, there are some forces, and if you blindly give power to Webster, there is indeed this possibility.
Seeing that he finally understood, Princess Taiping secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and continued: "I will not comment on the matter of your husband and wife's opinion. But even if she can really be worthy of the trust of the imperial brother, can you be sure that the family behind her is also on the same position as her and has no two hearts at all? The imperial brother is His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he has been high for so many years, and sometimes he can't help himself when he stands in this position, I think you should feel it more than anyone else, right? ”
Isn't Merriam-Webster the most capable of attacking people's weaknesses? Coincidentally, she will do this trick too. Moreover, standing in her position, she knew very well what Li Xian, the elder brother, could listen to. Therefore, from the time she entered the temple to the present, she seems to be informal and outspoken, but in fact, every word she says has been carefully considered. She knew what kind of words to say in what way to really poke Li Xian's sore spot, and she also knew that only such an obvious tingling sensation could make him sober up directly and never waver.
Sure enough, as soon as her words fell, Li Xian's face became even paler. Yes, the body of the superior is involuntarily, he has indeed experienced it in the past few years. It's like the Shenlong coup, even if he doesn't want to confront his mother so much, even if he is so unwilling to tear off the last veil of warmth between mother and son, even if he doesn't really want the throne so much and just wants to live in peace, but with the encouragement and promotion of Zhang Cambodia and others, he doesn't even have the slightest room to retreat. Those who followed him, from the day they boarded his boat, had their lives on him, even if he could stop, they who supported him could not. Therefore, the only way to support him and push him is to run over all the obstacles on the way forward without hesitation and mercilessly. With an indomitable posture of never looking back, he embarked on this bloody and sweaty imperial road, even if he was stepping on his blood relatives, he had to ignore the past with a hard heart. He is like this, how can it not be the change of Emperor Taizong's Xuanwu Gate back then? Besides, power and glory are the easiest things to change people's minds, and Webster is just a weak woman, can she still be the only exception? He doesn't believe it, so how can he convince others?
He didn't respond, and Princess Taiping didn't rush to urge. The two were silent face to face, and they didn't know how long it took before they heard Li Xian's voice sounding a little tiredly, but at the same time, it was as heavy as a thousand catties, falling heavily in people's hearts, and there was an indescribable discomfort: "Okay, I know, I promise you." ”
