Chapter 252: Chain Reaction

By the time he had walked out of the palace, it had been two hours.

On the way home, Li Shimin's face was extremely unsightly, and he was unprecedentedly depressed.

Because, the matter of supporting Jiangnan mentioned by him was strongly opposed by Li Yuan. Moreover, no matter how Li Shimin helped Li Yuan analyze the pros and cons of sending troops, Li Yuan was unmoved, which made Li Shimin extremely helpless and angry.

Even, I almost couldn't help but go to Yang Guang's grandson, Emperor Yang Yu of Sui Gong.

But he still didn't go in the end, what can an eleven or twelve-year-old child do? To put it bluntly, it's just a puppet. It was Li Yuan who really presided over the affairs of the DPRK and China.

If you go to Yang Yu, not only will you not be able to get what you want, but you will further offend Li Yuan.

As Li Yuan's son, Li Shimin's situation in Chang'an can be said to be very aggrieved, far less favored by Li Yuan than Li Jiancheng. Besides, Li Jiancheng didn't know who he had listened to recently, and kept saying bad things about him in Li Yuan's ear, causing Li Yuan to immediately blacken his face whenever he saw him.

In such a situation, he seems to be covered with a layer of shackles, and he can't do anything.

Being in such a family, I have to say, it's really sad and lamentable.

"Your Highness."

At this time, a cry was heard not far away.

Li Shimin looked up, but saw that it was the eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and Wei Chigong and others.

The expression on his face softened a lot.

These people are his strong supporters in the court, if it weren't for these people who constantly admonish him on weekdays, probably Li Yuan would have transferred all the rights in his hands to Li Jiancheng.

"Your Highness, have you just come out of the palace?" The eldest grandson Wuji saw that Li Shimin's face didn't seem to be quite right, so he asked more.

"Yes."

Li Shimin did not hide it, and said in a deep voice: "I went to my father to ask him to agree to my decision to lead troops to support Jiangnan, but unfortunately he sternly refused. ”

"Recently, rumors have been flying all over Chang'an City, all saying that Yang Guang's attack on Jiangnan was actually a feint, so it is reasonable for your father to refuse." Fang Xuanling said with a smile.

Li Shimin said weakly: "Gossip, without the slightest credibility, maybe it is a ghost sent by Yang Guang, otherwise at this juncture, how could such gossip suddenly appear?" ”

Hearing this, Fang Xuanling, eldest grandson Wuji and others glanced at each other.

These people are very convinced of Li Shimin's ability, and they also know that as long as Li Shimin makes a judgment, it will basically not be wrong, but they believe that it is useless at all, the key is to make Li Yuan believe.

"Actually, your father's reluctance to send troops to support Jiangnan is not just a matter of gossip......

Du Ruhui's eyes swept around, and then said vaguely: "Your Highness, you also know that Tang Guogong has long had the intention of killing Li Yu and establishing himself as the emperor. ”

"This matter is really the top priority, and before it is completed, Tang Guogong naturally does not want to cause more trouble."

Li Shimin smiled bitterly when he heard this, this matter has long been no secret in Chang'an, how can he not understand? It's just that if Jiangnan is lost and the power of the Great Sui can be expanded, can Li Yuan, the emperor, sit on the throne safely?

"Father, he is too cautious, lacks correct judgment on current affairs, and likes to pamper some traitorous villains, before these hidden dangers are solved one by one, even if he really establishes himself as the emperor, it is estimated that he will not go too far."

The people present were all some henchmen, so Li Shimin didn't care about saying some rebellious things.

"And do you think that when he becomes emperor, who will be appointed as the crown prince?" Li Shimin stared at everyone and asked lightly.

"This ......"

But everyone didn't expect that Li Shimin would ask this question. For a while, you look at me, I look at you, and I can't answer for a long time.

"Tang Guogong's thoughts, how can I know?" The eldest grandson Wuji smiled bitterly.

"It's not that you don't know, but you're afraid that saying it will chill my heart."

Li Shimin waved his hand and said desperately: "This prince must be Li Jiancheng, this Li Jiancheng has always been dissatisfied with me, if he becomes the prince, then my situation can be imagined." ”

Everyone's eyes kept flashing, and they didn't know how to comfort Li Shimin.

As for Li Shimin, who lowered his head, he didn't pay any attention to these people anymore and slowly left the place.

Only the voice mixed with a bit of depression still echoed in everyone's ears.

"I will continue to fight for my father to send troops to Jiangnan. I believe that in a few days, the war in Jiangnan will break out in an all-round way, and when the time comes, it will be too late to say anything. ”

Jiangdu, Jiangdu Palace.

Yang Guang held a secret letter in his hand, and after reading it, he patted his thigh excitedly.

"Haha, I know that Li Yuan's old man will definitely not rush to send troops. is so good, just relying on the little Li Yuan's army stationed in Jiangnan, even if one person takes a strong pill, he will not want to stop my elite soldiers of the Great Sui. ”

"It's still Your Majesty Shengming, as early as half a month ago, he had already judged the current situation." It was Lai Hu'er who sent a secret letter to Yang Guang who spoke, and he also had a smile on his face.

The benefits brought by gossip are very great, so that they don't have to worry about what threat Chang'an will bring to the Great Sui.

"Okay, you go down, continue to pay attention to the movements on the Chang'an side, if there is any situation, report to me as soon as possible." Yang Guang waved his hand, and sent away the future guard.

"After I take Jiangnan, it will open a new page for the Great Sui, but I don't know if there will be any chain reaction in this incident......"

Yang Guang muttered to himself.

Li Yuan did not move, which made him satisfied, but he was actually a little worried in his heart.

Now that Yang Yu is in the hands of Li Yuan, he has no way to rescue him for the time being, and after Jiangnan is lost, Li Yuan, who is furious, is likely to turn around and vent his anger towards Yang Yu.

Once he kills Yang Yu, the annual ring of history will open again, and the next step, Datang will appear......

To be honest, Yang Guang didn't care whether Li Yuan would establish the Tang Dynasty, he cared more about Li Shimin would kill the crown prince Li Jiancheng, force Li Yuan to abdicate, and then take over the Tang Dynasty in full.

Today's Great Sui, although it is thriving, if you want to compete with national strength, you can't compare with Datang after all.

If Li Shimin really wants to lead the Tang Dynasty and launch an all-out war against the Great Sui, even if he is a time-traveler who is familiar with history, it will be difficult for him to escape the end of being crushed by Li Shimin in the face of absolute strength......
