Li Shimin had a long talk with Feng Deyi all night, and decided to lure the snake out of the hole, and it was only in the morning that Feng Deyi left from Hongyi Palace except for the night ban.

------

A few days later, when Feng Deyi and Li Yuan were alone, the two talked about the tension between the crown prince Li Jiancheng and the king of Qin, Li Shimin.

Feng Deyi said to Li Yuan, "His Royal Highness the King of Qin has made great achievements, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has long known that His Majesty has the intention of appointing another King of Qin."

"If Your Majesty wants to change the King of Qin as the crown prince, he must do so as soon as possible, and if he is not ready to make the King of Qin the crown prince, he should make plans as early as possible to see how to deal with the King of Qin."

"If it goes on like this, the prince will become more and more suspicious, and I'm afraid something will happen."

------

Li Yuan is now also in a difficult situation, facing a painful choice.

Some people accuse Li Yuan of being indecisive and not abolishing Li Jiancheng sooner.

Saying this kind of thing is standing and talking without backache, it is not his turn.

Abolishing Li Jiancheng is equivalent to killing him, Yang Yong of the Sui Dynasty is a lesson from the past, and after abolition, he is not far from death.

Li Jiancheng is nearly ten years older than Li Shimin, Li Yuan has been this baby son for many years after marriage, how can he not love Li Jiancheng?

There is a deep father-son relationship between Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng, how can he bear to send his beloved son to death now?

------

Moreover, Li Jiancheng is not a big mistake, and there is no suitable reason for Li Yuan to abolish Li Jian and establish Li Shimin.

If Li Yuan said that Li Jiancheng was not as meritorious as Li Shimin and that he was not as talented as Li Shimin, those who supported Li Jiancheng would immediately move out of the rule of "establishing a successor to be a good person rather than being virtuous" and deny this reason.

------

If Li Yuan overrode public opinion and forcibly abolished Li Jiancheng, and the disposal was heavy, Li Yuan would not be ruthless when he thought of the relationship between father and son.

If the disposal is light, Li Jiancheng will not give up, and the people who support Li Jiancheng will not give up, and in the end, the court will be unstable, or even a mutiny, which will endanger the society of the country.

Therefore, to abolish Li Jiancheng's position as the crown prince, Li Yuan has no reason to serve the public, and second, he can't be ruthless.

------

can't make up his mind to abolish the prince, so can Li Yuan make up his mind to give up Li Shimin to protect Li Jiancheng?

Li Yuan had to ask himself about this matter, if Li Jiancheng inherited the unification in the future, would he be able to keep this hard-won Tang Dynasty?

Judging from the performance in the past few years, Li Yuan has no confidence in Li Jiancheng.

------

So assuming that Li Jiancheng has the ability to keep the country, can Li Yuan abandon Li Shimin?

If Li Shimin has no threat to Li Jiancheng, there is only one way, which is to kill him.

Otherwise, as long as Li Shimin has a breath of air, not to mention a hundred responses, even if he doesn't call, there will be thousands of people behind him urging him to rebel.

With Li Shimin's current ability and connections, there is no reason why he wants to rebel.

Li Shimin will also rebel, if he does not rebel, soon after Li Yuan's death, it will be the death of Li Shimin's family, and Li Jiancheng will definitely not leave such a trouble.

Therefore, if Li Yuan wants to protect Li Jiancheng, he has to kill Li Shimin.

------

Is Li Yuan willing to kill Li Shimin?

Li Shimin is also Li Yuan's beloved son, it was he who helped Li Yuan lay down the Tang Dynasty, he is Li Yuan's best son, and he has made great contributions to the creation of the Tang Dynasty.

Is Li Yuan stupid? Killed such an excellent son for no reason.

Even if Li Yuan is really stupid and kills Li Shimin, who made great achievements in creating the Tang Dynasty, what will the Manchu Dynasty civil and military think? What will be said in the history books?

------

The key is what the consequences will be if you kill Li Shimin.

Kill Li Shimin, who will suppress those heroes of the world who have anti-bones on their heads and have just been attached for a few days?

Kill Li Shimin, who will control the unruly Li Yuanji?

Kill Li Shimin, if the crown prince is in a hurry to ascend the throne, can Li Yuan live a few more years? Will he follow the old path of Yang Guang killing Yang Jian?

-----

The most important thing that Li Yuan is afraid of is whether Li Shimin is willing to let him kill.

If Li Shimin is unwilling to die, according to his current ability, he will be annoyed, Li Yuan, Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji, and those concubines and little princes will have to finish playing one by one.

-----

Li Yuan is difficult, don't blame him for being indecisive.

The others were in Li Yuan's position, and no one could make the best of both worlds.

Li Yuan can only delay one day is one day, and if he drags it out for one day, all his sons can live one more day.

Once he has made his decision, some sons may say goodbye to him in the afterlife.

------

Li Yuan thought a lot about his sons, but he thought more about himself.

In the open and secret struggle between the two sons, Li Yuan was not afraid that Li Shimin would attack him, because Li Shimin was still waiting for Li Yuan to justifiably support him to the throne.

What Li Yuan is afraid of is Li Jiancheng, as soon as Li Yuan dies, Li Jiancheng will be the rightful emperor, and he is the person in this world who wants Li Yuan to die soon.

Therefore, the most important thing for Li Yuan to guard against is Li Jiancheng.

------

Whoever becomes a prince will be in a hurry to become an emperor.

As long as Li Shimin was in power, Li Jiancheng would not dare to fight Li Yuan's idea.

As long as Li Jiancheng is still the crown prince, Li Shimin will protect Li Yuan.

Once Li Jiancheng is no longer the crown prince, whether Li Shimin will still protect Li Yuan is another matter.

Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng maintain today's mutual checks and balances, and Li Yuan can live longer.

This is Li Yuan's wishful thinking.

------

Now, Li Yuan heard Feng Deyi say that Li Jiancheng was also very uneasy because he was afraid that he might be deposed.

But Li Yuanchengfu is very deep, he will not tell Feng Deyi what he really thinks in his heart, but casually said, "The prince is loyal and filial, Feng Xiang just rest assured, he will not do stupid things."

The abolition of the crown prince is the most taboo topic among the monarchs and ministers, since Li Yuan said this, Feng Deyi is not convenient to say more, the two talked about some other things, Feng Deyi retired to Li Yuan and went out of the Taiji Palace.

------

In the afternoon, Li Yuan summoned Li Shimin and asked about the guards of the capital and the palace.

Li Shimin said to Li Yuan, "Most of the soldiers of each guard are scattered to various places to take turns on duty according to their different duties, and it is not easy to quickly gather in case of emergency. It is necessary to have a standing army that is quick to move and brave to prepare for contingencies."

This is exactly what Li Yuan is worried about, once someone mutinies, it will be difficult for these soldiers scattered everywhere to gather together quickly, if someone attacks the palace, wait for these people to gather together and then rush, it will be too late.

------

Li Yuan asked Li Shimin, "Is there a solution for Erlang?"

Li Shimin asked Li Yuan in an inquiring tone, "Grandpa, see if you can enrich the guards of the Qin Palace, Hongyi Palace is next to Da Nei, and you can reach it in an instant if you have something."

Li Yuan nodded, "This is a good way, there is no need to establish a new army, and there is no need to worry about not having a place to station, Erlang just needs to arrange according to your ideas."

Today's Li Yuanquan is counting on Li Shimin to protect him, so he is not afraid that there are powerful protectors in Li Shimin's mansion.

------

With Li Yuan's consent, Li Shimin could mobilize and adjust the guards of the Qin Palace.

In the next period of time, Li Shimin began to select and transfer brave men from all over the place to enrich the guards of the Qin Palace, and he transferred most of the members of the former Xuanjia soldiers to the Qin Palace.

Duan Zhixuan, Wei Chi Jingde, Qin Shubao, Cheng Zhijie, Qiu Xinggong, Zhang Gongjin, Ding Jikan, Changsun Zhan, Changsun Jian and others all served as the protectors and deputy guards of the Qin Palace.

------

Li Shimin's fanfare to enrich the Qin Wangfu Protector Army, firstly, it really strengthened the strength of the Qin Wangfu Protector, and the other purpose was to let Li Jiancheng see that the Qin Wangfu had a big move to disturb his mind.

At this time, a person ran to Li Jiancheng to report the movements of the Qin Palace.

------

The person who told Li Jiancheng was Du Ruhui's uncle, named Du Yan.

As I said before, there is a folk proverb in Beijing: Weidu in the south of the city is five feet away from the sky. It is said that the Wei and Du families in the south of the imperial city are the closest to the imperial city, and there are many talents, and there are many high-ranking officials in the court.

Du Ruhui and Du Yan were born in the Du family in the south of the city, but the Du family was internally discordant, and Du Ruhui and his uncle Du Yan were sworn enemies.

------

Du Ruhui served as a staff member under Li Shimin, the king of Qin, but Du Ruhui's uncle Du Yan, brother Du Weizhou, and younger brother Du Chuke were in Luoyang, first with Yang Tong, the little emperor of Sui Emperor Tai, and then with Wang Shichong as an official.

Du Yan is Wang Shichong's official book, and the official residence is three products.

Because of his discord with Du Ruhui, Du Yan slandered in front of Wang Shichong and killed Du Ruhui's brother Du Weizhou.

------

After Li Shimin led the army to capture Luoyang, Du Yan was condemned to death as Wang Shichong's official secretary, and Du Ruhui's younger brother Du Chuke asked Du Ruhui to rescue him.

Du Ruhui was already at odds with Du Yan, and now he has a grudge against his brother and refuses to save his enemy.

Du Chuke cried and begged Du Ruhui, "Uncle has killed the eldest brother, and now the second brother refuses to save the uncle, my Du family is killing each other."

Du Ruhui was moved by his younger brother and pleaded with Li Shimin to avoid Du Yan's death penalty.

------

After Du Yan returned to Chang'an, he couldn't get reused, so he went to befriend the prince Li Jiancheng, the two had a close relationship, and Du Yan wanted to find an official position with the help of Li Jiancheng.

After Feng Deyi found out, he told Fang Xuanling, who knew that Du Yan was cunning and resourceful, and was afraid that he would teach Li Jiancheng badly, which would be unfavorable to Li Shimin, so he suggested that Li Shimin recruit Du Yan into Tiance Mansion and let Wupin's soldier Cao join the army.

------

After Du Yan entered the Tiance Mansion, he still maintained contact with the crown prince Li Jiancheng, and complained to Li Jiancheng many times that Li Shimin did not reuse him, saying that he was originally a third-grade official in Wang Shichong, and only served as a fifth-grade official in Tiance Mansion.

Li Jiancheng saw that Du Yan was dissatisfied with Li Shimin and felt that he could take advantage of it, so he wooed Du Yan and asked Du Yan to find out the news of the Qin Palace.

Du Yan was also willing to be used by Li Jiancheng, so he reported to Li Jiancheng the details of the Qin Palace's requisition and transfer of personnel to enrich the army.

------

Du Yan joined the army as a soldier of Tiance Mansion, and the information he provided to Li Jiancheng was genuine.

After Li Jiancheng heard this, his heart began to panic.
