Chapter 420: Secretly Helping
"Father, the son didn't make a mistake, why did you put the son in the cold palace!" Li Min quickly understood what it meant to enter the cold palace, but he didn't know what he was wrong with, so he had to retort with a tone of grievance.
The cold palace is not only a place for the concubines to go, but also for the princes and grandsons who have made mistakes, there are no maids there, like a cold ice cave, unable to contact the outside world, and that kind of loneliness will wear out people's will.
After many princes and grandchildren enter it, they will come out into a log without any words, and when the time comes, the people who originally supported it will not hesitate to give up supporting this person to inherit the throne.
As a strong contender for the throne, he naturally doesn't want to make any mistakes with him, not even the slightest bit, but the truth is cruel after all, and the real cruelty begins in front of him.
When the news spreads, the camp he has created will also turn into a plate of scattered sand, gradually being eaten away by other competitors.
"You should remember that your father said to you that you should have a good relationship with Li Chen, so that our Li Tang Empire will continue to multiply, but you didn't listen to your father's words at all, and only considered your own gains and losses, completely unaware that you had made a serious mistake, because you offended a person who couldn't be provoked at all, this does not mean Li Chen, but the person standing behind him, he is a thousand times more important than you, he can stabilize the foundation of the Tang Empire, so it has been opened to beat you into the cold palace!" Li Shi said sternly.
"Guardian of the Tang Dynasty!" As soon as these words came out, the two Li Min brothers and sisters immediately guessed who Li Shi was referring to, prompting their faces to change rapidly, and finally, they were frozen in fear, and even thought that Li Jian's limbs were cut off by Li Chensheng, not only was he not chased by Li Zheng, but Li Jian died.
Everything is their hearsay, and now that they taste it from Li Shi's mouth, they really understand why Li Shi wants them to have a good relationship with Li Chen, it turns out that this is secretly helping Li Min inherit the unification.
It's a pity that Li Min doesn't know what to do, he only cares about the immediate interests, and completely forgets the bargaining chips that can be escorted.
Regret quickly popped up in Li Min's heart, like a thick and undispersed ice, constantly invading his body, making him tremble violently for a long time.
"Father, the son knows that he is wrong, and now he will go to the cold palace to face the wall and think about it!"
"Go!" Li Shi nodded, then turned around and waved his hand.
"Erchen retire!" Li Min shouted respectfully, then turned around and walked quickly out of the palace gate, his bare back showing how desolate he really was.
This kind of desolation was all found by himself, not inflicted on him by others, a bit like lifting a stone to hit his own feet, and the pain and sour vinegar can only be tasted by himself.
"Father, why don't you understand and remind us?" Li Min watched Li Min leave this place in despair, and he also broke free from that shock, no matter how angry Li Min was just about to stuff her to Li Chen, Li Min was her own brother, not to mention, she was now full of confusion and asked.
Who asked Li Shi to know Li Chen's identity clearly, but he only told them to have a good relationship, how could they think that Li Chen's teacher was the guardian of the Tang Dynasty, at that time, their idea was that Li Chen had the support of the Wan family and the Tang family, and it was impossible for the Tang family to betray the Li family, there were only ten thousand families left, as long as Li Min married Wan Ling'er, then the Wan family would fully support Li Min to seize the throne.
"Min'er, do you know why my father values the people so much?" Li Shi did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically.
"Imperial Aunt!" Li Min said without even thinking about it.
It's just because there is only one person who can influence Li Shi's decision, not their mother, nor the major princes and nobles, that is Li Shi's sister!
Maybe this is a bit incomprehensible, why Li Shi, who is the king of a country, is so concerned about his sister, in fact, this can be traced back to Li Shi's accession to the throne as the emperor, and the biggest promoter is his sister.
Or maybe his sister did not come forward to support Li Shi's accession to the throne as emperor, but her sister's popularity is far better than Li Shi's, not only with the help of Wan Jia, but also the Tang family gave up neutrality and switched to Li Shi's camp, prompting the emperor to gradually tilt towards Li Shi.
And then Li Shi is such a sister with the same father and mother, since he was a child, he has tried his best to protect his sister, everything is important to his sister, and at the same time, the first emperor is like a pearl in his hand, which also makes the first emperor value Li Shi very much, for some reason, he had to ascend the throne as the emperor, sitting on this throne that many people remember, but lifelong widowhood.
Li Shi gave up too many things, focused on making great efforts, and emulated the first generation of emperors who created the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty.
In the end, whether it is the princes and nobles, the princes and grandchildren, they all know that Li Shi has always held his sister in the palm of his hand, for fear of being wronged.
This is also the only person Li Min thought of at once who can influence Li Shi's decision, in addition, there will be no second candidate, even the guardian of the Tang Dynasty will not be able to intervene in which prince Li Shichuan is located!
"That's right, although the imperial sister has never smiled at you, she likes it very much for you to talk to her, which is also the main reason why the father intends to pass the throne to the people, but you don't know that the imperial sister has a biological flesh and blood, and the hard-working child is Wan Ling'er's unmasked fiancé!" Li Shi nodded.
"Father, the imperial aunt has never been married, how can it be..."Li Min couldn't twist the corner for a while, but when she spoke, she suddenly remembered something, and her voice instantly fell silent, like extinguished fireworks, just a pear blossom, and her pretty face was even more shocked, and then, she also said to herself a little bit: "No wonder the imperial aunt sometimes strokes the head of her son, she will suddenly say that her child is not much older than me, I thought that the imperial aunt was lonely for too long..."
"Min'er, did Li Chen really ask you for a jade pendant?" Li Shi didn't plan to reveal all this matter, just wake up Li Min, at that time, Li Min would quietly pass on the matter to Li Min, which was also his main purpose, and now, after the goal was achieved, he naturally turned his attention back to the present.
"He can't wait to get rid of me, how can he ask me for a jade pendant, even if he asks me, I will never give it to him!" As soon as Li Min heard this, a touch of resentment quickly appeared, and he was resolute, and then he continued: "Father, you don't know how rampant he is, saying that our Tang Empire is stabilized by thousands of civilians, and without thousands of civilians, there will be no place for us!"
"It is worthy of being a disciple valued by Ying Lao, his eyesight is really good, and he can see at a glance that the people can carry the boat and the boat can be overturned, and this son will be a good person who governs the country in the future!" Li Shi not only did not feel angry because of this, but only had the surprised look of love and cherishing talent.
This caught Li Min off guard, she wanted to use this to sue Li Shi, although Li Shi could not stand up for her, but at least she would understand the anger in her heart a little, and she never wanted to let Li Shi look at Li Chen again, which made her shocked At the same time, she didn't dare to say anything more, as if the more she said, the more Li Shi had the idea of soliciting Li Chen.
"Father, you have every opportunity, and your sons will no longer disturb you in handling government affairs, and you will retire!" At this moment, she only had one thought, that is, to pass on this news to Li Min as soon as possible, and at the same time, she also had to beg someone to save Li Min from the cold palace as soon as possible, and there would be fewer supporters for one more day, which would make Li Min depressed.
"Go back and think about it, don't make some outrageous moves!" Li Shi naturally knew Li Min's plan, and he did it intentionally, but he didn't mean to keep Li Min, after waving his hand, he looked at Li Min's fast-moving beauty, shook his head and sighed lightly: "The person chosen by Ying Lao will serve as the next guardian of the Tang Dynasty in the future, and in the future, Ying Lao will sit down, Li Chen will be the guarantee to protect the Tang Empire, the emperor and they will turn Li Chen away like this, if the demon clan comes to attack, it will destroy my Li Tang Jiangshan!"
"Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about the sky, since Ying Lao has taken a fancy to Li Chen, I believe that Li Chen is not a person with a small belly, not to mention, today he tames the sweaty and bloody BMW King, which is enough to prove that he is a bloody real man, and then there is Li Min's little prince is obsessed with lust, punish him a little, and believe that he will inherit the unification in the future There is also a certain whip, so that he will not be too blind to no one and turn away many talented talents!" Several figures also flashed out from the shadows, they were all old Longzhong, Dao.
Judging from their non-grovelling performance, it is obvious that their status in the Tang Empire is extremely lofty, even if Li Shi has to give a little thin face.
"Hmm!" After Li Shi nodded, he no longer thought about the chaos caused by the two Li Min brothers and sisters, and now it is useless for him to worry about it, whoever calls it is the future that falls on the heads of the Li Min brothers and sisters.
At the same time, there was a big brown horse on the road to Tang's house that made people stop and watch, and where the brown horse passed, all the horses were so frightened that they dodged to the sides, even if the street was enough for ten carriages to run side by side, they still couldn't control the frightened scene of the horses.
The person sitting on horseback is even more concerned, and with such a mighty BMW, this person pays more attention to it so that they will not collide with this person.
But the person on horseback showed a bitter taste, he was Li Chen, who didn't like to pay attention to him in many ways, how could he withstand the gaze from a steady stream of joining in.
Fortunately, after they arrived at the Tang family, many eyes disappeared in an instant, and only a few of them were still paying attention, except for Tang Fu and others, it was inevitable that Tang Fu stepped forward to praise, and even with a hint of regret, which made Tang Heng very innocent under pressure.
"Little Brother Li Chen, Elder Ying just sent a message to me, ordering you to return to the academy immediately and prepare for the Dragon Knight Qualification Battle in two years!" Tang Fu also knew that Tang Heng had done his best, but he didn't mean to blame Tang Heng, not to mention, Chaoyang was equivalent to the Tang family's items, but the owner was just a foreign surname, and immediately, he also confided in more important things.
