Guanyin asked Li Shimin to stop making trouble, and she said to Li Shimin seriously, "The most important thing is that Brother Shimin must learn to protect himself."

Li Shimin asked Guanyin, "How can I protect myself?"

------

Guanyin said the thoughts that she had been thinking about for many days, "First of all, let others think that you are harmless."

"Because you are harmless, no one will target you. You have to learn Grandpa's hidden self-cultivation, learn to hide, learn to endure, and be content with waiting quietly for a long time."

Li Shimin nodded and said, "My cultivation in this area is indeed too far behind my grandfather."

------

Guanyin continued, "Second, you have to make yourself strong enough to make sure that no one has the ability to hurt you."

"When you are as strong as a mountain, no one can do anything about you."

Li Shimin sighed, "To be as powerful as you say, it's easy to say, but it's hard to do."

Guanyin encouraged, "It's up to people."

------

After saying the two, Guanyin went on to say the third, "By Grandpa's side, there must be someone who is loyal and upright to speak for you."

"The only one who can decide your fate is Grandpa, although Grandpa is wise, but he must also prevent him from being confused by traitorous ministers."

"Someone speaks up for you in front of Grandpa, so that Grandpa won't be suspicious of you like King Yan Hui did with Le Yi."

Li Shimin pondered for a while, and said to Guanyin, "Let me think about this article carefully, and I'll talk to you about my thoughts in a few days."

------

Li Yuan is an informal person, and after ascending the throne, when discussing matters with close ministers, he is still as casual as when he was in the Jinyang official office. often sits on the same bed with others, calling his name "Yuan", and does not call his name to the old ministers, calling Dou Wei his uncle, Dou Kang as his brother, Pei Lin as Pei Jian and Xiao Yu as Xiao Lang.

Seeing this situation, Liu Wenjing admonished, "Your Majesty is now the Son of Heaven, you should call yourself me, and you should look down on all things like the sun.

------

Li Yuan said disapprerovingly, "Back then, Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu slept with Yan Ziling, and Yan Ziling put his feet on Emperor Guangwu's stomach, which is now regarded as a beautiful talk. I have been friends with you for many years, how can I forget the old family and friendship? I hope Zhaoren won't be too me."

Liu Wenjing had no choice but to let Li Yuan be the same as before.

------

Li Yuan is also a person who cherishes the old and cherishes his three sons, and he can't bear to hurt any of them, and he is very respectful to his former best friend.

In the past, Li Yuan had a deep friendship with Mrs. Dou's uncle Dou Wei, his brother Dou Kang, Dou Rail, and Dou Jin, and now they are all reused one by one.

For Xiao Yu, his best friend when he was young, although he was a little mean, Li Yuan didn't care, regarded Xiao Yu as a treasure, and entrusted him with confidence in the government affairs of the DPRK and China.

------

In the matter of establishing the crown prince, Li Yuan has always had a difficult choice between Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin.

Li Jiancheng is the eldest son, loyal and talented, obedient to Li Yuan, and has never made mistakes.

Although Li Shimin is the second son, he was born brave and resolute, and he has followed Li Yuan for a long time, and Li Yuan and his relationship are deeper.

------

Regarding the candidate for the crown prince, Li Yuan is more fond of his second son Li Shimin.

However, according to the patriarchal law of the Rites and Religions, it should be "to establish a successor to be a superior rather than a virtuous", Li Jiancheng, as the eldest son, has no fault, and Li Yuan cannot find a reason for Li Shimin to replace Li Jiancheng.

Li Yuan has the heart to wait a few years before establishing the prince, but if it is undecided today, it is still necessary for fathers, sons, and brothers to work together to sweep the world, if the position of the prince is empty, he is afraid that there will be suspicion between father, son and brother, and there will be infighting.

------

When he was undecided, Li Yuan wanted to ask for the opinions of the ministers close to him, and he asked Dou Wei, Dou Kang, Dou Rail, Dou Jin, Xiao Yu, Chen Shuda and others what they thought about the matter of opposing the prince.

These close people who Li Yuan respected in the old days don't know much about Li Shimin today, and they all think that Li Jiancheng, as the prince of Tang Dynasty, is a natural thing to be established as the crown prince, and no one mentions that Li Shimin should be re-established at all.

------

Among all the ministers, Li Yuan was the closest to Pei Lian, so he naturally valued his opinion very much. Since the capture of Chang'an, Li Yuan has been kind to Pei Lianwu, and has rewarded him innumerable, often sharing a bed with him when he is deliberating, and talking to him when he has nothing to do.

Pei Lin is the best at figuring out people's hearts, he often peeks into Li Yuan's thoughts from Li Yuan's words and deeds, and what he says is exactly what Li Yuan thinks in his heart, so his suggestions are most in line with Li Yuan's mind.

Li Yuan saw that Pei Lian's thoughts were always the same as his own, and he trusted Pei Lin more and more, and cited him as a confidant who talked about everything.

------

For Pei Lian, this is a virtuous circle, the more Li Yuan talks to him, the more he divulges his thoughts to him. Pei Lin didn't need to dig out his mind to investigate, he could know what Li Yuan was thinking. He didn't have to go out of his way to think of a way to give advice to Li Yuan, he just had to say Li Yuan's thoughts through his mouth.

------

During this time, Pei Lin was in contact with Li Yuan, and he already knew that Li Yuan was making a difficult decision about who to make the prince, and he also knew that Li Yuan wanted to establish Li Shimin, but he couldn't find a suitable reason, so under the current circumstances, Li Yuan had only one choice, that is, to make Li Jiancheng the prince.

Since Pei Lin knew what Li Yuan was thinking, he naturally had his own idea.

------

On this day, after discussing the government with several ministers in the Liangyi Palace, Li Yuan asked Pei Lin to go to the Wanchun Hall with him.

When he arrived at the Wanchun Palace, Li Yuan invited Pei Lin to sit on his knees on the dragon couch and asked Pei Lin for his opinion on the matter of establishing a prince.

According to common sense, when Pei Lin and Li Shimin were in Jinyang, they were the ones who jointly planned to raise troops, and he should have hoped that Li Shimin would be made the crown prince. But Pei Lin didn't think so.

------

Since he met Li Shimin, Pei Lin has a deep understanding of Li Shimin, and he found that Li Shimin is too assertive and difficult to be swayed by others.

And Li Jiancheng treats people more loyally, loyal people, their ears are soft, and they are more able to listen to other people's opinions, so in front of Li Jiancheng, Pei Lian's skills have more room to display.

After weighing the pros and cons, Pei Lin was more willing to let Li Jiancheng be the prince.

In addition, in the face of the patriarchal law of the Rite Sect, even Li Yuan was powerless to change Li Shimin as the crown prince, so why did Pei Lin persuade Li Yuan to do something that could not be done at all?

------

Li Yuan asked Pei Lian, "Among the two of Da Lang and Erlang, who does Pei Gong think is the most appropriate to appoint as the crown prince?"

Pei Lin is cunning and cunning, he knows that Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin are Li Yuan's beloved sons, he will not be stupid enough to step on one and praise the other, but praise Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin.

Pei Lin said to Li Yuan, "Da Lang is loyal and benevolent, Erlang is heroic and wise, both of them have extraordinary talents, and whoever is appointed as the crown prince will be a very good prince." If it is not attached today, people have made up their minds, and in the matter of establishing a prince, it is better not to cause people's hearts to fluctuate."

------

Although Pei Lin did not say it explicitly, he was actually hinting to Li Yuan that if it is undecided today, don't cause disputes because of the establishment of the crown prince, causing discord between father and son and brother, which is exactly what Li Yuan is worried about.

Li Yuan said, "Da Lang is the son of the Tang Dynasty, and it is logical to make him the crown prince, and the ministers of the court will not quarrel over this matter, but will this bury Erlang's talent?"

Pei Lin didn't want to make a clear statement on who to appoint as the crown prince, for fear that he would leave a handle on this matter in the future, so he still pushed the decision to Li Yuan, so he excused himself and said, "As the saying goes, knowing the son is better than the father. His Majesty should know which of His Royal Highnesses to be appointed as the crown prince, and the ministers dare not say anything about the crown prince."

------

After asking Pei Lian, Li Yuan asked Liu Wenjing again.

Liu Wenjing supports Li Shimin in his heart, but he is a scheming person, he will not see the current situation clearly, and knows that it is unlikely that Li Shimin will be re-established at the moment, and Li Shimin has already explained to him, so he should not talk lightly about the canonization of the prince, so when Li Yuan asked for his opinion, Liu Wenjing did not suggest that Li Shimin be appointed as the crown prince.

------

In order to establish the crown prince, Li Yuan consulted a circle of people for their opinions, but no one mentioned that Li Shimin should be appointed as the crown prince. Although Li Yuan likes Li Shimin, he is powerless to change the current situation. He felt sorry for Li Shimin in his heart, and was worried that Li Shimin would be resentful because he was not made the prince.

In the past few years, Li Shimin has been following Li Yuan, from seeking military power, to raising troops in Jinyang, and now to Dingding Pass, in which Li Shimin's role is not clear to others, but Li Yuan knows it.

------

Li Yuan recalled the road he had traveled over the years, and every important node had the efforts of Li Shimin and Guanyin.

When seeking military power, it was Li Shimin and Guanyin who came up with a strategy to win Yang Guang's trust.

Annexing and exterminating the bandits in Hedong and Shanxi was a clever plan by Li Shimin and Guanyin.

In the northern attack on the Turks, it was Li Shimin who took the lead and charged into battle.

In the case that Li Yuan did not agree, he actively planned in private, co-opted and absorbed all kinds of heroes and heroes, and Jinyang's army could avoid complete success, and Li Shimin's merit was the first.

However, all these things are secrets that cannot be told to outsiders, and in the eyes of outsiders, all these things are conspiracy.

How could Li Yuan use these as reasons to change Li Shimin as the crown prince?

------

When Jinyang raised troops, all the key things had been done, and Li Jiancheng arrived in Jinyang.

But just because he was Li Yuan's eldest son, he was made the prince of Tang.

Li Shimin put in so much effort from beginning to end, but in the end he made a wedding dress for the eldest man Li Jiancheng.

Li Yuan didn't know how Li Shimin would feel about the canonization of the crown prince, so he decided to summon Li Shimin alone to listen to Li Shimin's own thoughts.
