Volume 5 Chapter 671 Li Er's candies are all poisonous
When the Cui family and others received the news, they were also excited.
Li Er's attitude is very revealing, and at this time, they also have to re-examine Li Ke's potential.
For them, the person who will inherit the treasure of the Tang Dynasty in the future is more suitable than Li Chengqian!
After all, the contradictions between Li Chengqian and them have not been mediated until now, and Li Chengqian has been to the Western Regions for too long, and they can't feel Li Chengqian's pulse now.
On the other hand, Li Ke is much more familiar with them, and over the years, they have actually secretly supported Li Ke, especially when Li Ke first took office in Chang'an Mansion, they also made great efforts.
It's just that their support was limited before, and at that time, they didn't dare to bet heavily on Li Ke, and they have always been restrained.
Without Li Er's support, it would be almost impossible for Li Ke to wrestle with that person.
Of course, now it is different, Li Er checked most of the officials of Li Ke's department in one go, which made them start to figure out Li Er's intentions again.
On this night, the seven families surnamed Cui, Li, Zheng, Wang, and Lu gathered at the Cui family mansion again.
"Your Majesty's attitude this time, what do you think?" Cui Shilang asked first.
When everyone heard this, they immediately expressed their opinions.
Zheng Xu said bluntly: "For us, this is indeed an opportunity, and you actually know that with the rise of that person, it is more and more dangerous for our families, especially this time when the Ming Dynasty slaughtered more than 100,000 people in one breath in the Western Turks."
It can be seen that that person's murderous intent is really not light. And we offended that person a lot at the beginning, and if we really want that person to be in the position in the future, we may not have a good life. ”
Zheng Xu, as a person who personally experienced that scene in the main hall back then, he definitely didn't want Li Chengqian to return to Chang'an.
He can't learn Lu Zhengqing, and he doesn't want to learn Lu Zhengqing.
Even in his eyes, Lu Zhengqing was disgraced to the scholars.
"It's an opportunity." After Zheng Xu finished speaking, the people of the Wang family said, "But have you thought about it, the so-called opportunity depends on Your Majesty's attitude, how much do you think Your Majesty's attitude of supporting the King of Shu?"
Although we don't want to believe it, we have to admit that if we really want to talk about it, there is no comparison between the King of Shu and that one. That person's achievements over the years, throughout the ages, are estimated to be incomparable to few people!
It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the strongest and most successful prince of my Han dynasty for countless years, right? ”
"That's true." Li Jiali also said, "Since the beginning of the history books, it is not for nothing that there is a more legendary prince than him, but there is no one else who has this achievement!" ”
They are also convinced of Li Chengqian's achievements.
"So, is it possible that Your Majesty will abolish him?" Seeing that someone supported his point of view, the man from the Wang family continued, "From Your Majesty's standpoint, of course he hopes that the Tang Dynasty will be passed on for generations, but it is obvious that only passing the throne to that person is the most beneficial to the Tang Dynasty."
Don't forget, that person's strength is not weak now, if the throne of the Tang Dynasty falls to someone else, do you think that person will be indifferent?
Even if he has behaved without fighting or grabbing until now, it is not that people are unwilling, but disdainful.
Looking at the entire court, how many princes can compete with it? ”
After he finished speaking, everyone also nodded.
At this point, they still agree with it.
Although these guys have all kinds of problems, they still have an eye for one thing.
After a long time, Zheng Xu said: "But it is still undeniable that this is an opportunity." ”
He actually understands the current situation, but as he said, this is an opportunity, an opportunity, so you can't give it up easily.
"The old man does not deny that this is an opportunity." Seeing this, the man from the Wang family continued, "To tell you the truth, I also think this is an opportunity, after all, for us, the future monarch is stronger than that one, and I think there is no one present who does not understand.
But the question is, how sure is this opportunity? Is it worth the risk?
Although we all know that winning a bet is a splash of wealth, but what if we lose?
Our family is not as simple as a single family......"
His attitude is very clear, it is an opportunity, but he can't invest too much, at least he has to leave a way out for each family, seeing Zheng Xu like that, he can't wait to smash everyone into it, is that a gamble?
It was a fight with Li Chengqian, winning and killing.
That's not what they're old warriors to do.
When Zheng Xu heard this, he also shook his head and said: "Of course, the old man doesn't mean to be desperate, to put it bluntly, his King of Shu is not enough for us to make a desperate bet for him, but at this time, should we increase our support for the King of Shu?"
Wouldn't it be a good thing for us if it did happen in the future? ”
"Then let me ask you, how strong is this support?" The man from the Wang family pointed to the crux of the matter.
Speaking of this, Zheng Xu was also dumbfounded for a while, supporting Li Ke's plot to seize the position of prince, and in the end, it was really not something they could control.
Of course, they are actually only discussing it roughly here, and the specific matters actually require the nod of a few old guys in the clan, but as representatives of each family in Chang'an, their words still have some weight.
"Once the battle for the prince begins, it will be difficult to get out except for victory or defeat." Li Ji also shook his head secretly.
From the words of several people, it can be seen that the Taiyuan Wang family and the Zhaojun Li family are not willing to get involved in this matter.
They can break their wrists with Li Chengqian, but support another person to compete with Li Chengqian for the position of prince, hehe, they don't want to.
That's crazy, if you lose, that's a catastrophe.
Of course, Zheng Xu is obviously on Li Ke's side, not only from his personal considerations, but also from the long-term development, as for the few people who did not speak, the Cui family in the two places is probably on the same mind as Zheng Xu, after all, today is their organization.
And the Lu family and the Li family in Longxi, it's hard to say what they think, all along, the people of these two families haven't said a word.
It was at this time that the Lu family, who were rarely silent, finally stood up and said, "Actually, it's useless for us to think about this. ”
"Huh?" Hearing this, the man from the Wang family immediately asked, "What is Brother Lu's opinion?" ”
"I can't talk about it." The Lu family said, "As far as the old man is concerned, at this time, we should be more concerned about how we should deal with ourselves if we return to Chang'an to inherit the treasure in the future?"
Not to mention that my brother of the Lu family forced that person to commit suicide in the Taiji Hall back then, nor to mention the humiliation of the Cui family who was received in Jingyang, these can be ignored for the time being.
Just talking about the act of supporting Wang Renyou this time, don't you realize anything?
Remember the conditions he offered? ”
"You're saying that the one who proposed the partnership was an attempt to break into the hearts of my people?" Li was a little skeptical.
The man from the Lu family shook his head and said: "This old man doesn't know either, but the old man still remembers that when he was rejected by Cui Hao in Jingyang in the Nanzhu Forest outside Jingyang City, that person once jokingly said that the wind can enter the rain, but the prince cannot enter."
But today, the man who would rather take a detour into the city back then took the initiative to approach our nobles, do you really think that he has forgotten everything?
Or do you think that after so many years, the person has matured and finally understood the strength of our warriors? Beginning to make overtures to us?
Hmph, in this world, is there really anyone who doesn't hold grudges? Think of Pei Lone! ”
After he said this, everyone was silent, even Li He and the Wang family didn't squeak for a while.
The directiveness of these words is too obvious, what happened to Pei Lone, how could they not know, isn't it Li Er's revenge?
But because of Pei Lone's identity, when Li Er first ascended the throne, it was also courteous, but only a year later, when Li Er stood firm, the first Pei Lone to take the knife, so that Pei Lone died of fear in the end, and it has to be said that it is an inexplicable sadness.
And the words of the Lu family are nothing more than a reminder to everyone that the Li family holds grudges, and that is heredity!
"But the question is, what if this is a bureau set up by His Majesty?" After a long time, the Wang family said, "For Your Majesty, whether it is the King of Shu or the heir to the Great Treasure, it is actually acceptable to him."
But what if our majesty wants to see this big show?
Think about it, as soon as Your Majesty's attitude comes out, will many people who were not optimistic about the King of Shu before be moved? Don't talk about others, aren't we gathered here because our hearts are moved?
And how could our reaction, with His Majesty's intelligence, not be able to think of it? ”
"You mean to say that His Majesty has actually thought of all this, just to watch us fight that person?" Li said immediately.
In fact, many people have this idea, but they have never said it.
At this moment, the words were spoken, and the people no longer hid it.
"Is it impossible?" The man from the Wang family continued, "Although that person's achievements are indeed impeccable, it does not necessarily mean that His Majesty values him very much!
The son is strong and the father is strong, which is a good thing in an ordinary person's home, but in the royal family, it is not a good thing.
Your Majesty, it may not be that you don't have the intention of using us to assist the King of Shu to beat that one.
Moreover, it seems that this is the only way His Majesty can beat that one.
The mountain is high and the emperor is far away, what else can Your Majesty do besides this?
But you really have to match that person, who is that, do you know?
To be honest, I don't know, the only impression I have of that person is that the soldier who killed tens of thousands of Western Turks in a short period of time did not frown.
Compared with those hundreds of thousands of soldiers, what are we? ”
After listening to him, everyone was also a little excited.
Indeed, Li Chengqian's previous actions were to clearly tell everyone that he did not have any psychological burden when killing people.
In the future, even if Li Chengqian returned to the Tang Dynasty and slaughtered one of them in one go, it is estimated that even they themselves would not be surprised.
After all, Li Chengqian's people have been set up!
That's the benefit of his slaughter of hundreds of thousands of people in the first place.
"Your Majesty is going to use us as a knife!" The people of the Li family in Longxi, who had not spoken, sighed.
Although it is said that Li Eryi is from the Li family in Longxi, after Li Er ascended the throne, he actually did not have any special preferential treatment for the Li family.
And the Li clan actually didn't think it was any glory, in the final analysis, the scholar clan was one.
Royalty, that's another line.
"Actually, this shows that we don't have a choice!" Zheng Xu said, "Since Your Majesty wants us to be this knife, we won't go this time, and Your Majesty will make another move, I'm afraid that we won't even have a choice." ”
"The question is, who is the knife?" The man from the Wang family shook his head helplessly, "Your Majesty just wants to see us support the King of Shu and that person in a fight, win or lose, do you think Your Majesty will care?"
If we win, Your Majesty will be pleased, after all, weakening the one who is the most threatening to it.
But if we lose, Your Majesty will still be happy, after all, Your Majesty has not wanted to weaken our clan for a day or two, judging from Fang Xuanling's opening of the Chang Branch, Your Majesty's tolerance for us is getting lower and lower.
And this time, as long as we stand in line to support the King of Shu, Your Majesty will be invincible.
On the contrary, only if we respond to all changes with the same is the only way to solve it. ”
"But without our support, how much will the King of Shu win? Truth be told, it is not His Majesty who we fear now, but the One! No matter what Your Majesty does today, he will always talk about some rules, but that person who does things, have you ever seen him talk about rules? ”
Zheng Xu shook his head and said, "Your Majesty may only want to weaken the influence of my Shi clan, but that one, he really has the potential to uproot us, this time, if we don't fight, are you fantasizing about that person's kindness?"
When did we start taking our destiny into someone else's hands? ”
The more he talked, the more irritated he became, not like that, really not like that.
The fate of the nobles has always been in their own hands.
"Indeed, there are too many uncertainties in that one." The Lu family also nodded at this time and said, "And it's time for us to make some preparations, we can't leave our fate in the hands of others." ”
"That's what I mean, too."
Soon, there will be the Taiyuan Wang family and the Zhao County Li family left.
Even the Li family in Longxi has made a choice.
Li Ke, this is the only life-saving straw they can grasp.
Of course, if Li Tai came out to wave the flag and shout, they would naturally support Li Tai, but Li Tai is now like Wang Ba eating a scale, and they are also helpless if they are determined not to get involved in these things.
"Crazy, crazy, crazy!" Seeing this, Li He knew that he couldn't change anything, so he immediately said, "You have all made a choice, what's the use of us talking more?" I hope you're right. ”
"I hope you're right!" The man from the Wang family also shook his head helplessly, what could he say at this point?
Let's hope they made the right choice.
In fact, both of them know that the reason why they chose this way is not only because of Li Chengqian, but also because of the dragon's work!
That's what they value the most.
Just like the saying of later generations, give it a go, and the bicycle will become a motorcycle.
They also want to give it a shot.
"Don't worry, we know." Seeing this, Zheng Xu also breathed a sigh of relief, and said after a while, "At the beginning, we naturally won't press several families up, so many scholars, we may not need to go out in person, of course, if it really comes to the time when we need to go into battle in person, since it is the head of my Zheng family, then my Zheng family will be the first to rush forward."
In the future, if my Zheng family declines, please help. ”
A few people didn't reply, what kind of jokes, if they really got to that point, could they still stay out of the matter?
It can only be said that this time, Li Er is too poisonous, it is not a conspiracy, nor is it a conspiracy, just a simple temptation, they can't resist it......
